Hounslow Borough 0, Chipping Norton Tn 3: Chipping Norton booked a quarter-final place in the Hellenic League Supplementary Cup with victory over an intimidating Hounslow Borough.

The visitors took the lead on 16 minutes when an inswinging Tim Jenkins corner was headed home by Julian Spalding.

It was 2-0 on 22 minutes after Hounslow's Carlton Mitchell fouled Sean McKeon in the box, Mitchell only receiving a yellow card despite being the last man. McKeon scored from the spot.

Moments before the break, Hounslow's Michael Meaker was lucky to stay on the pitch after taking out Chippy's Sam Avery with a tackle.

Chippy wrapped up the game on 62 minutes when Dave Skipp put McKeon through on goal and he netted with a chip from just outside the penalty area.

With 82 minutes gone, Hounslow's Mitchell was sent off for a second yellow card and then home sub Gary Hedges followed him to the dressing rooms for punching.
