A goal two minutes from the end of extra time earned Diss Town victory in the Ridgeons League First Division Cup final at Woodbridge on Wednesday.

Teenager George Wilson was the Tangerines' hero, slamming home a loose ball from the edge of the area to see off the challenge of Hadleigh United, just as both teams were preparing for a penalty shoot-out.
It is Diss' first silverware since winning the Norfolk Senior Cup in 2005.
Ed Cussons came closest to breaking the deadlock in normal time. His 30-yard drive had the goalkeeper floundering but he managed to get a hand to the shot to divert it wide after 74 minutes.
Hadleigh hit a Tangerines' post early in the second half and Ben Soanes had gone close for Diss in the early stages but both sides struggled to muster many noteworthy chances.
