Chichester City 3 Horsham 2 (after extra-time)

Ian Payne's long wait for a Horsham goal was finally ended last night but so was our interest in the Brighton Charity Cup as a makeshift Hornets side went down 3-2 at County League leaders Chichester City. The veteran defender ended a barren run of 116 appearances without a goal by scoring from the penalty spot, after Tony Nwachukwu's initial effort was ordered to be retaken, to give the Hornets a 2-1 advantage after Robert Kasanga had earlier cancelled out James Archer's 9th minute opener for the hosts. Jack James levelled the tie up, just before half-time, but there was no further scoring until Ben Vassallo claimed the winning goal in extra-time. Horsham can have few complaints, and arguably few concerns, about this result after Chichester dominated much of the proceedings, hitting the crossbar twice and having a seemingly good goal disallowed.
