Kent Junior Cup A final: Medway City 5 Littlebourne 4

Lewis Taylor scored an injury-time winner as Medway City won a dramatic Kent Junior Cup A final against Littlebourne at the Gallagher Stadium on Saturday.

Left-back Taylor somehow found the energy to drive into the penalty area and beat a couple of defenders in the third minute of stoppages before firing a right-foot shot into the roof of the net.

It capped a thrilling final - the last county showpiece due to be staged this season - which saw both teams lead at different stages before Littlebourne tasted defeat for the first time this season.

“It was unbelievable,” said Medway City boss Ray Broad. “I’m really proud of my boys, they were out on their feet at the end.

“They are a very good side, they’d won 34 out of 34 this season - but we stuck in there and what a brilliant result for us.

“We were a little nervous at the start but it seemed every time we scored they came straight back and got an equaliser.

“Lewis is purely left-footed so when it was on his right foot, I thought just hit it, but thankfully it went in.”

Rochester & District League side Medway took the lead in the 11th minute, Regan Payne was not penalised for handball as he chested down a left-wing cross before setting up Sam Parish, who fired across keeper Shannon Harris into the far corner.

The lead lasted just three minutes. There appeared little danger as a loose ball fell invitingly for Aaron Garvey but he had other ideas and launched an audacious 30-yard shot into the top corner over stranded keeper Russell Hood.

Littlebourne went ahead for the only time in the contest five minutes before the break. Right-back Jon Lewis delivered an excellent cross for skipper Robbie Loomer to head in from close range.
