TJ Bohane and Adam Cornell will take the plaudits here for an extra time brace apiece, but Joe Grant got the crucial normal time equaliser in a 5-1 FA Vase win at Hook Norton on Friday night.

Norton scored a second half penalty to take a 1-0 lead and might have won it with Bracknell particularly wasteful in front of goal.

That is until Grant got through to fire home a rebound and send the tie to extra time.


Khalid Senussi had a goal ruled out in the first period period before Cornell fired home a left footed strike to make it 2-1 in extra time.

At this point it was only going one way, and when the home side had a man sent off and penalty awarded Bohane duly stepped up to make it three.

Bohane and Cornell then turned providers for each other, making it two goals each and a 5-1 win for Bracknell.

Here’s who Bracknell Town will face in the FA Vase Second Qualifying Round.
