With the hosts reduced to nine men for extra-time, as Louis Hird and Luke Chambers had to leave early due to work and they had used their sub earlier on, they hung on for penalties and finally overcame a plucky Newlands side.

A Danny Collins double in the opening 10 minutes got the visitors off to a flying start, but Dan Blanchard’s strike gave Heslerton hope.

Cayton refused to buckle and drew level early in the second half through a Corey Towell effort, but when player-boss Jonny Best was dismissed for a second caution midway through the second half the odds were against an away win.

Heslerton piled on the pressure but Cayton defended superbly, and due to injury they were reduced to nine men for extra-time but still held on for the penalty shoot-out.

Billy Bown scored from the spot for Heslerton, and although Gareth Driver hit the post, further successful spot-kicks from Beach, Mikey Webster, Mike Clark and Tony Cass secured the win for the hosts as Cayton missed two of their penalties.

Heslerton boss Dean Storry said: “I feel sorry for Cayton as they started really well and I couldn’t see us coming back but the lads fought back well and we deserved it in the end.

“The whole team deserves a share of the man of the match award as they dug deep throughout the 120 minutes.”

Cayton’s Damon Cook echoed Storry’s sentiments, saying: “I am so proud of the way that the lads played especially when reduced to 10 and then nine men.”
