HOWE Bridge Mills Reserves and Hag Fold WMC served up a Coronation treat in the Leigh & District Amateur Football League.
Mills came from behind twice to beat Fold by the odd goal in five in the Redwaters Coronation Cup 1st round replay.
And they left it late - scoring two goals against the higher division club in the last five minutes.
David Sizer, Michael Sampson and Paul White netted for Bridge, Stuart McPike scored for Fold.
In the only other game played, Britannia ruled in Division Two. They beat Atherton C&N 9-4. Brit's goals came from Ian McKinnon, Mark Broli and Chris Keary 2 each, Alan Mills, James Croft and Dave Shacklady. Nev Tighe, Dean Lord, Ryan Shaw and Steven Harris replied.
