HAGBOURNE United Res booked their place in the final of the North Berks League Cup with a 4-0 win over Steventon Res, who ended the match with nine men, writes RICHARD UNDERWOOD.

Chris Hewitt fired Hagbourne in front, before George Smith doubled the lead just after the break.

Steventon keeper Adam Waclakwek had to be carried off with a leg injury before Adam Lee headed home Hagbourne’s third goal.

Steventon then had their manager sent from the pitch-side following a dispute with the referee before Paul Hedges headed past his own keeper to give Hagbourne a 4-0 lead.

And Steventon’s day got worse as skipper Matt Hill and defender Scott Hetherington were both sent off.

Hagbourne will meet Harwell & Appleford in the final after they beat Marcham Res 2-1, their goals coming from Jake Muir and Eddie Stanhope.
