Cometh the hour cometh the man. Captain Coly Cousins scored an absolute screamer at Cheney Park on Saturday afternoon to spark a second half comeback and see his side into the Premier Cup Semi Finals.

Goals from Andy McHugh and Ryan Harper put Broomhill 2-0. Matty McKnight then pulled a goal back heading home from a corner but the joy was short lived as Davy Taylor curled home to make it 3-1 at half time.

With just over twenty minutes to go Coly Cousins picked up the ball on the left hand side and forty yards from goal, Cousins unleashed a thunderbolt in off the crossbar. Mark Wilton left the keeper rooted to the spot to make it 3-3 and in the final seconds of normal time Cousins was quickest to react and blast home the winner.
