Jamie Cumming converted the extra time penalty which secured Ruthin the NEWFA Challenge Cup for the second time in their history.

The first half ended two-apiece, Matty Hill and Cumming on target for the hosts, while Asa Hamilton converted a pair of penalties for record nine-time cup winners Bucks.

Connor Littler nudged the Trotters in front in the 72nd minute, but Ruthin forced the added half-hour when Matty Evans levelled in stoppage time.

And it was Cumming’s 110th minute spot-kick which clinched the victory for Philly Hudson and Tommy Holmes’ heroes.

Petrie struck again in the 48th minute, then Dylan Williams converted a penalty before Gethin Thomas completed the rout.
