Poole Tn 3
(Miller 15, Shelton 20, Smith 70)
Wantage Tn 2
(Claydon 13, 39)
Richie Claydon’s brace failed to save Wantage Town from slipping to defeat in the FA Carlsberg Vase third round at Poole Town.
Claydon latched on to Graham Edney’s pass to fire Wantage into a 13th-minute lead.
But the Sydenhams Wessex League Premier Division outfit were level two minutes later when Michael Walker headed home a corner.
And Poole then went ahead when Aaron Skelton’s mis-hit free-kick flew under the Wantage wall and into the net.
Claydon equalised with a superb free-kick into the top corner before the break.
But Poole grabbed the winner in the 70th minute when Carl Preston crossed for Steve Smith to finish well.
