Folarin Balogun scores a last-gasp winner to book our place in the semi-finals of the Premier League International Cup after an enthralling game against Monaco at Meadow Park.

The match saw seven goals, a red card and an injury-time winner, as we progressed into the last four.

After a closely contested opening 15 minutes, the game sprung into life with four goals in 10 first-half minutes.

The first came as we took the lead, when Jeremi Abonnel fumbled Matt Smith’s whipped cross and Zech Medley pounced to poke the ball into an empty net.

Monaco then immediately hit back two minutes later when a drilled cross flashed past the face of goal and was neatly controlled by Moussa Sylla, who fired past Karl Hein from close range.
