Matthew Taylor grabbed a late winner as Vale of White Horse Schools Under 13s pipped Aldershot & District 1-0 in the Meeson Trophy at Milton United.

A goalless draw looked on the cards, but Taylor had different ideas and raced clear on the right to shoot home.

It capped an excellent performance by Vale against a side who have the reached the last 16 of the ESFA Trophy.

Jack Alexander and Anthony Martin fired narrowly wide in the first half, and Taylor had a shot blocked by the Aldershot keeper soon after the break.

Alexander crashed a free-kick against the crossbar, and Alex Thomas headed the rebound straight at the keeper.

At the other end, Tristan Chamberlain dived to fingertip a shot around a post, before Taylor had the last word.
