Borehamwood team The Wellington had two players sent off, but won to progress into the final 16 in the County Cup.
The first half was dominated by The Wellington, and they should have been at least five goals ahead at half-time, after creating chances with some wonderful one touch football.
But they had to settle with a 1-0 lead. Sam Margerrison made a great finish to score, after good approach play from Neil Burrows.
The Wellington dominated the second half, until the referee sent Sam Margerrison and Andy Burrows off in the space of five minutes.
The opposition equalised, and the remaining nine Wellington players on the field produced an impressive display of character and fight to snatch two late goals, from Neil Burrows and a fine strike through Kevin Jacques. Goalkeeper Alan Butterfield made an outstanding penalty save late on, to prevent any chance of a fight back from the opposition.
THE WELLINGTON: Butterfield, Frost, A Burrows (capt), McCarthy, Gillings, C Parratt,
Jacques, R Burrows, Margerrison, D Parratt, N Burrows, C Hawthorn, L Hawthorn, Higgins.
