THE Berkshire Trophy Cup Final rehearsal between Woodcote Stoke Row and South Reading in the John Dell Senior Division ended all square at 2-2, with both sides claiming they should have had penalties which might have won the game for them.

Woodcote started the match strongly and were unlucky not to take the lead when a Jim Hancock header crashed against the bar.

South Reading clawed their way into the match and had a strong penalty claim turned down, but it was Woodcote who went ahead when Andy Bullett's pass found James Worsfold and he lobbed the goalkeeper.

Worsfold might have added to Woodcote's lead after 50 minutes but his flick header saw the keeper produce a great save to push the ball onto the post.

South Reading countered with a move that ended with Ryan Kingsbeer equalising with a neat shot.

After 63 minutes Woodcote restored their advantage when Toby Nowell fired home a Johnny Summers corner at the near post.

But they held the lead for less than five minutes as South Reading equalised with a Ben Lyden volley.

South Reading then had a superb chance to take the lead when they won a penalty but, amazingly, Nathan Silver saved his third consecutive spot-kick.

As the match entered its last minute, Woodcote had their own shout for a penalty when a defender appeared to handle a Jonny Summers cross, but the referee was unmoved.

Elsewhere, first-half goals from Simon Neale and Scott Warwick guided Westwood United to a 2-0 victory over Marlow United.

Reading YMCA beat Frilsham & Yattendon 3-1 thanks to strikes from Jonathan Adey, Martin Abery and Sam Jennings, with Stephen Pope bagging a late consolation for the losing side.

Kaser Chowdhary scored and also got sent off in Mortimer's 2-2 draw with Park United.

Michael Davies was also on target for Mortimer while Edward Bickerton and Ahmet Tuney replied for Park.
