Maidstone Rugby Club closing in on Twickenham final with victory over Newmarket
Maidstone Rugby Club are now just one game away from a
Twickenham final after winning 18-15 at Newmarket in their RFU
Senior Vase London & SE Regional on Saturday.
With the score 15-15 and only three minutes remaining, Leo
Fedorcio converted a penalty to give Maidstone victory and set up a
home tie against Somerset club Wells in the national semi-finals on
April 7.
After trailing 8-5 at half-time, with their points coming from a
Jamie Smith try, Maidstone moved into a 15-8 lead through tries by
Hayden Mitchell and Ollie Newton.
But the Suffolk drew level through a penalty try, only for
Newmarket to concede a penalty in the dying minutes and Fedorcio
made them pay.
