Hailey twice came from behind to land the biggest cup success in their history with a 4-2 triumph over Oxfordshire Senior Legaue outfit Garsington on Saturday.

And Hailey, who last year won the Oxfordshire Junior Shield for the first time, were good value for their victory against their high-flying opponents.

They played the majority of the game against ten men, after Garsington's 16-year-old defender Jamie McMahon was sent off for a professional foul on Joey King after only eight minutes.

But a strike from Lenny Sackey put Garsington in front - a lead they held until half-time.

Almost straight from the restart, Hailey equalised when James Fleming fired home.

But a foul by Alex Bolt led to a Garsington penalty, which Aaron Armstrong converted to put the favourites back in front.

Again, Hailey hit back, Ross Fleming levelling the scores.

A spectacular bicycle kick from captain Sean King put Hailey in front for the first time, then in the dying moments, Michael Bolt headed home to seal the cup and spark mass celebrations.
