Last gasp drama at Parkside

Aveley 2, Cray Wanderers 3
A REMARKABLE last few minutes saw Aveley experience joy and despair in equal measure in Saturday's Isthmian Premier clash at Parkside on Saturday (28 March) where the Millers' 13 match unbeaten home run came to a dramatic conclusion.
The outcome also means longtime league leaders Folkestone Invicta can clinch the title this coming weekend.
Wanderers kept their own playoff hopes alive on Non-League Day with an injury time winner through Max Fiddes.
Lateef Adaja opened the scoring for the visitors after four minutes from the edge of the area. They had to wait until the 74th minute before adding a second in the 57th minute when Remi Sutton was on hand to turn the ball in from a corner for his first goal of the season.
Aveley though showed why they were second in the league by turning the game around in the last ten minutes with substitute Liam Nash in the right place at the right time to score with two close range finishes, the second coming two minutes from the end.
However, Cray showed their resilience to grab a winner when following a Wands clearance off the line the ball was switched out to the right to Ola Ogunwamide who close to the byline laid the ball to the near post for Fiddes to score.
