Binfield will make the trip to Madejski Stadium on Saturday night for a third successive season after a 3-1 win over Woodcote Stoke Row in the Reading Senior Cup semi final at Scours Lane on Wednesday night.

The Moles came from behind to beat Woodcote on a wet night in Reading with Jon Bennett equalising in the first half after Woodcote took the lead.

Brad Pagliaroli gave Binfield the lead from the spot after the goalkeeper conceded a penalty and Ben Cook on only his fourth first team appearance of the season made it safe moments later.

Watch Brad Pagliaroli score from the penalty spot:

Binfield: Nyamunga, White, Dickie, Bayley, Walton, Smith, Pagliaroli, Knight, Bennett, Cook, Davies. Subs: Broome, Powell, Brighton, Edwards, Lynch.
