FOOTBALL: KEA hold off Aston recovery in cup win
11:00am Thursday 3rd May 2012 in Sport
KEA Res’s skipper Darren Spinks lifts the Geoff Wilson Cup after their 3-2 extra-time win against Steeple Aston Res
KEA Res lifted the Banbury District & Lord Jersey FA’s Geoff Wilson Cup for the third time in their history with a 3-2 victory against Steeple Aston Res at Ardley United.
Marvin Solomon fired KEA ahead just before half time, only for Jack Stevens to level after the break.
Substitute Ian Edge restored KEA’s advantage with a terrific shot before Richard Jeffries made it 3-1.
It looked as though KEA would cruise in, only for Stevens to complete his brace and set up a nerve-jangling finish.
But KEA held on to take the cup for the third time following their wins in 2007 and 2008.
