Last gasp winner sends Marine to the third round
Eighth Division Marine scored a winning goal in the 120th minute to upset Havant and 10-man Waterlooville in the second round of the FA Cup.
Captain Niall Cummins converted from close range with seconds remaining after the visitors failed to tackle a free kick.
The National League South Havant had to play all the overtime as a light man after Anthony Straker was sent off late for a second cautioned violation.
The game looked destined for penalties, but Marine, who knocked out League Two Colchester in the first round, found a late winner.
The Merseyside club, which plays in the Northern Premier League Division One North West, had the best of the few opportunities created in regulation time.
And it was seasoned forward Cummins, 33, who dived down the back post to force the ball over the line with his back after a free throw crossed the goal.
“I’m not going to lie; I closed my eyes and he hit me on the shoulder or on the back,” he said.
“It is a dream come true for all of us. It was a tremendous effort and will last in our memory.”
The victory for Marine, whose league season is currently on hold due to the national lockout, places them in the third round for the second time in their history.
The club will now host the third round draw on Monday at 19:00 GMT.
