Harwich snatch Essex Premier Cup victory

Two goals from Robbie Marks, one a penalty, gave the Shrimpers a 2-0 half time lead but they were to rue missing chances to make this a more decisive lead. Tiptree came on strongly after the restart and Tony Mills reduced the arrears in the 61st minute. After Andy Cheek had equalised in the 75th minute, the match went into extra time. With penalty kicks looming and only 3 minutes remaining, Darren Bethell crossed for Jimmy Chatters to head the Shrimpers winning goal.
The Shrimpers reward is a home tie in the New Year to Ilford side Toby FC
