Cumberland FA Senior Cup Final
Carlisle United 2 Harraby CC 1
Unlucky Harraby went down to Mark Beck’s last-gasp winner as Carlisle United lifted their second successive Cumberland Senior Cup.
The Blues included skipper Paul Thirlwell and Irish striker Paddy Madden in their line up and went ahead in the 38th minute as Jack Lynch embarked on a superb solo run.
He beat four men and rounded the keeper but team-mate Brad Potts stole the ball off his toes and poked into the empty net.
The lead lasted just two minutes as Dan Balmer rose to flick on a long ball for Dean Armstrong who found himself clear and tucked away smartly past advancing keeper Mark Gillespie.
Potts had a header blocked on the line just before the break but battling Harraby looked to be taking the game into extra time until the dying seconds when David Symington went down the left and fired in a low cross that Beck stretched to prod past the sprawling Andrew Casson from six yards.
