The Exeter Associate Members Cup game would have stumped most people.
Strap - I thought we beat Darlington 4-2 on penalties that night not lost to them....
Good call - quite right. Many thanks.
We had 18 attempts to their 7 and still had to come from behind 3 times to force extra time. Peter Mate, (remember him?), equalised in the 88th minute via a goalmouth scramble on his only ever game for RFC. Peter Mate, Ulises de la Cruz and Andre Bikey - were making their Royals debuts.
We could have been out in the shoot out too. David Stockdale saved Steven Hunt's penalty but was adjudged to have moved from his line, allowing Hunt to fire home the re-take and tee up a spot-kick win that was sealed by Andre Bikey. We finally won 4-2 in the shoot-out.
Darlington were hard done by that night. Apart from the penalty re-take, wasn't Peter Mate's goal scored with his hand?
