It was a night to remember for Wantage Town FC, who pulled off a sensational comeback to defeat Redditch after going two goals down – booking their place in the final play-off and setting up a fiery local derby against Abingdon United.

In front of a buzzing crowd, Wantage showed grit, belief, and fighting spirit, turning the tie on its head with a relentless second-half display. Goals sealed a memorable turnaround, sending the away fans into raptures and confirming their place in the final.

The result not only marks a huge moment for Wantage Town, but also guarantees an all-Oxfordshire final clash, as they now face near-neighbours Abingdon United in what promises to be a high-stakes and hotly contested local derby. With pride, bragging rights, and a place in step 5 on the line, this is a fixture that will have the whole county watching.

Congratulations to the players, coaching staff, volunteers, and supporters of Wantage Town – your passion and perseverance continue to drive this club forward.

Next stop: the final. Let the derby begin!
