Anglian Combination round-up: Attleborough Town cause cup upset
Attleborough Town caused one of the few upsets in the first round of the Norfolk Senior Cup when they beat Reepham Town 2-0.
Goals from Jack Binks and an own goal earned Boro, having made a slow start to the season in Division One, the win over their Premier League opponents.
First Division Aylsham almost did the same at top-flight Long Stratton, where they created plenty of chances and took the lead through Phil Read, only to be beaten by a second-half comeback, the hosts' goals coming from Matt Nicholls, Ben Nicholls and Danilo Campoli in a 3-1 win.
Ryan Pye and Lewis Butcher scored for St Andrews as the match with Mulbarton Wanderers went to extra time, but the visitors won 6-2, their goals coming from Mark Appleton (2), Ben Thompson, John Curtis, Eliot Altay and Miles Palmer.
Premier Division leaders Harleston Town continued their great start to the season with a 6-1 win over Wymondham Town, with goals from Leyton Russell (3), Scott Roberts (2) and Cammeron Russell, with Daniel Mace replying.
