PAUL Sherwood's extra-time strike saw Carterton through 2-1 in Saturday's second-round Oxfordshire Senior Cup tie against Hellenic League Premier Division rivals North Leigh.

With penalties looming, Sherwood popped up to force the ball over the line from a Ben Border corner.

Carterton took the lead after four minutes, when Kevin Lewis rounded three defenders and fired low into the left-hand corner.

North Leigh were level 20 minutes after the break through Tony Grant.

And they laid siege on the home goal for the rest of normal time.

But Carterton looked the more likely side in extra-time, Lewis hitting the bar, before Sherwood's late winner decided things.
