Highlights: Hassocks 2-3 Haywards Heath Town

See all the goals from a dramatic Mid Sussex Derby in the Emirates FA Cup

Highlights from the Emirates FA Cup Extra Preliminary Qualifying Round tie between Hassocks and Haywards Heath Town at the Hassocks Hotel Beacon Ground on Saturday 3rd August 2024.

A dramatic Mid Sussex Derby featuring five goals was just about edged by the Bluebells, who ran out 3-2 winners.

Alex Fair gave the Robins an early lead via a fine volley. Heath though turned things around before half time, Alex Plummer and a Lewis Finney penalty ensuring the visitors went into the break 2-1 ahead.

Liam Hendy equalised against his former club on the hour mark, followed by an action-packed final 10 minutes.

Jack Meeres headed in for Heath on 89 but lengthy treatment for Bluebells defender Josh Spins earlier in the half meant a significant amount of injury time.

Hassocks subsequently won a 99th minute penalty and the chance to secure a replay. Heath goalkeeper Mitch Bromage ended up the hero, keeping out Tom Frankland’s effort to send the Bluebells through.
