Lambert forces cup replay

(after extra time) These two youth teams will have to do battle all over again in this Crystal Palace semi-final after a deflected shot from Davon Lambert in the last minute of extra time gave the young Trojans a lifeline.

Before then Damon Ming's 30 yard free kick into the far `pigeon hole' in the last minute of the first extra time period looked like being the winner, but Somerset stubbornly fought back despite losing Ron Burchall for a deliberate handball before they equalised.

Colts were denied what they thought was a late winner when, right from the kick-off from Somerset's equaliser, Wayne Christopher found the net only to have the goal ruled out for offside.

Colts took the lead in the 20th minute of the game through Jamel Blakeney and Somerset equalised 13 minutes into the second half when Mark Mills hammered a penalty past 'keeper Thomas Smith after Kwame Steede was brought down as he raced into the area.
