UCC 2 Great Baddow 2

Gary Grant once again put UCC in the driving seat within 5 minutes of the extra 30 only for Michael Snell to equalise on the stroke of half time as his toe poke on goal from the edge of the box came through a crowd and deceived the UCC keeper during the first period of extra time.

A goal mouth scramble almost saw Baddow gain the advantage in the 106th minute of the game but a combination of the post and a UCC defender saw the ball go safely wide. However UCC's resolve was finally broken when Dane Nelson's goal in the 110 minute of the game seemed to knock the stuffing out of UCC and a late Sam Mead goal made the game safe for Baddow.
