Minnows Vics stun Charlton to keep dream alive
CASH-STRAPPED giantkillers Northwich Victoria were living the FACup dream last night after stunning League One high-fliers Charlton – a team 86 places above them in the league pyramid.
Eighteen-year-old student Wayne Riley had only been on the field five minutes when he slipped the ball past Darren Randolph nine minutes from time to seal a famous victory for the Blue Square North side, who are currently in administration.
Northwich now entertain Lincoln City in round two, while Blue Square National side Kettering have been handed a plum home tie against giants Leeds United.
