Didcot made it fifteen out of fifteen with a victory over Cumnor Minors. The first half of the first game was very tight, both sides had chances but the deadlock was broken by a stunning Josh Lyons free kick which gave Didcot the lead. Ben Marshall extended the lead when he lobbed the Cumnor keeper at the start of the second half. Cumnor went straight down the other end and pulled a goal back. Both keepers then made good saves before Didcot goalkeeper Jack Tinsley set up his team's third goal. His long goal kick found man of the match Jack White and he slotted home. Jack White then grabbed his second after good work from Josh Lyons and then completed his hat trick with a fine shot from the edge of the box. The first game finished 5-1 to Didcot.
The second game was also a close affair, Didcot took the lead through Jack Hooper after James Pearson, Declan Hargreaves & Charlie McDermaid had gone close. The second half was end to end with both sides scoring twice. Man of the match Declan Hargreaves hit the bar early in the second half before Cumnor equalised following a defensive mix up. Didcot re-took the lead when Declan Hargreaves shot went in off the underside of the bar and after he had hit the bar again he grabbed Didcot's third following a scramble. Cumnor then got a goal back from a free kick but the second game finished 3-2 to Didcot (8-3 on aggregate).
