FOOTBALL: Vale lose in thriller
Banbury & District Under 15s ran out 4-3 winners over Vale of White Horse in a cracking Maurice Chalk County Cup clash at Milton.
Vale took the lead after ten minutes when the Banbury defence failed to clear a long throw, and Josh McCaffer tapped home at the far post.
But Banbury equalised through Harry Smith's low left-foot shot from 25 yards, and then Alex Auld's right-foot volley from 15 yards put them in front.
Banbury went further ahead before the break when Vale's defence failed to clear, and Jordan Ayris scored.
Vale then lost captain Matt Clark, who had to leave the field with a calf strain.
Stern words at half-time produced a much-improved performance by Vale, and Jon Little reduced the arrears after the break, but Banbury made the game safe with four minutes remaining.
Keeper Pat Wiltshire came to clear the ball, but was unlucky to see it rebound to Ayris, who placed it into an empty net.
Little scored with a header from a corner in the last seconds, but Banbury deserved their win for their first half performance.
Mid Oxon Under 14s fired a four-goal second-half salvo to blow Newbury away 4-1 in their Vale Cup clash at Marlborough School, Woodstock.
Trailing 1-0 at the break, after Tom Knox, John Hegg, Murray Cox and Nathan Bott all missed good chances, Mid Oxon took a firm grip on the game in the second period.
James Murphy equalised, before adding a second after outpacing a Newbury defender.
Dom Hemming notched No 3, and Eddie Stevens's superb individual effort clinched victory.
