Jersey Bulls make play-off final after penalty shootout

Euan van der Vliet saved three penalties as Jersey Bulls beat Fleet Town 3-0 in a shootout to reach the Combined Counties Premier South play-off final. The two sides finished level at 1-1 after 90 minutes at Springfield and will face with Redhill or Cobham in St Helier next week. The win means Jersey Bulls' hopes of promotion stay alive after they were denied the league title after being docked three points for fielding an ineligible player - seeing them drop from the top of the table. The islanders have gone further than last season when they were beaten at the semi-final stage of the play-offs by AFC Croydon Athletic having finished second in the league. Paul McKay, Kurtis Guthrie and Francis Lekimamati all scored from the spot as van der Vliet was unbeatable from 12 yards. The game should not have gone to penalties but the hosts failed to take their chances, especially during the first half as Lorne Bickley, Miguel Carvalho and Fraser Barlow all went close goalless period before the break. Bulls finally took the lead 13 minutes into the second period as Ross Stepney turned into his own net after good work by Fraser Barlow. But Fleet upped the pressure as Bulls tried to consolidate their lead and were rewarded when Tom Smith levelled in the 88th minute to send the fixture into a shootout. Jersey Bulls
