Badshot Lea exited the Velocity Cup with a 3-1 defeat at home to Binfield in the second round.

Goals from Mitchell Parker (2) and Charlie George were enough to send the visitors through at Westfield Lane, before Lamin Ceesay pulled a goal back for the Baggies late on.

The Baggies went close to taking the lead in the 16th minute when Baback Dehghani’s deep free kick found Ceesay, who headed just wide of the far post.

Harvey Harry was next to go close for the hosts on 29 minutes when he worked a yard of space on the edge of the box, but his shot was comfortably saved by Binfield keeper Connor Jeanes.

Binfield took the lead in the 35th minute when the hosts gave the ball away to Parker, who went around Baggies keeper Harry Cawdron and calmly slotted his right-foot finish into the empty net.

The visitors doubled their advantage on 53 minutes when Parker’s free kick hit the post and the rebound fell to George, who fired his finish past Cawdron.

The Baggies nearly pulled a goal back in the 68th minute when Ceesay won the ball with his back to goal, turned and hit a thunderous shot which hit the post and bounced away to safety.

The visitors won a penalty on 71 minutes, and Parker sent Cawdron the wrong way from the spot and despatched his penalty into the bottom right-hand corner of the net to make it 3-0.

The Baggies pulled a goal back in stoppage time when Ceesay headed home from a corner.

Next up for the Baggies is a home match against Isthmian League South East Division outfit Broadbridge Heath in the first qualifying round of the FA Trophy on Saturday, September 7 (3pm kick-off).
