Kent Cup Finals Day

Bromley/Beckenham and Holcombe had a long struggle in the Veterans Final, being level 2 – 2 at full time. Brom/Beck gained a two-goal advantage in extra time, and then held off some determined Holcombe efforts to take things to a penalty competition.

===================================================================

In the Men’s Cup Final. An early Holcombe goal was quickly countered by one from Bromley/Beckenham, and the game remained closely contested for a long while, with each side scoring another goal. However, Holcombe gradually gained a slight edge to go into a 4 – 2 lead, and even when they were briefly down to nine players, they were able to prevent their opponents from converting this advantage into goals. Nevertheless Brom/Beck maintained their pressure to the very end, forcing a corner on the stroke of time. However, even if this had been converted, it would not have prevented Holcombe from achieving their sixth successive Final victory.
