Aylesbury Bow Out of FA Trophy

Ducks lose to Margate.

The Pitching In Southern Football League lost another club from the Buildbase FA Trophy on Sunday as Division One Central outfit Aylesbury United were beaten 4-2 at the Meadow by Isthmian League Premier Division side Margate.

It was the Ducks who took a 10th-minute lead when a Max Hercules cross was slotted home by Harry Jones.

Ten minutes later – and slightly against the run of play – Gate equalised when new signing from Dartford, striker Norman Wabo, netted from close range.

And it was Wabo who gave his team the lead just 3 minutes into the second half when he was allowed to run a long way without challenge to slot past Aylesbury `keeper Jack Hopwood.

But it was all-square again on 66 minutes when Jones grabbed his second of the game in style, curling a shot into the top corner past visiting number one Bailey Vose.

Eleven minutes later though it was the Kent side who went 3-2 ahead with a goal from Noel Leighton.

And it was former Millwall and Dagenham & Redbridge striker Leighton who killed off the Ducks with his second and Margate`s fourth.
