Sukkotingham Forest’s hopes of going the entire Maccabi GB Southern Football League season unbeaten came to an end on Sunday morning.

The Division Two champions were two games away from claiming an ‘invincibles’ tag, though Bocher Juniors didn’t read the script, fighting back from trailing 2-0 at half-time to claim a stunning 3-2 win.

Dave Amor scored twice, with Chaim Samet netting an 89th minute winner. The win keeps alive Juniors’ promotion hopes, with manager Joel Ucko saying: “It was an outstanding second half performance, I'm so proud of my team. The heart, desire and passion was clear to see and the togetherness within this team is extremely special.”

Hendon United are through to the final of the David Wolff Premier Division Cup after they beat Geez Park Rangers 4-2. Joe Bellman and Jayden Tomlinson fired Rangers into a 2-0 lead, but four goals in the last half hour sent Hendon through. Dovi Fehler halved the deficit, with two goals from Rocky Spitzer and Mordy Weiler’s strike seeing them to the win. Hendon manager Alex Rosenthal said: “The whole team showed great mentality to fight back and we look forward to the final.”

Brady FC are through to the final of the Super Cup as Joe Shaw’s extra-time winner saw them beat Oakwood 1-0.

In the Maccabi Masters Sunday League, Maccabi London Lions secured the win they needed in their final game of the season to clinch the Division One title. Adam Kaye scoring the goal in their 1-0 win over Temple Fortune. EHRS Stonegrove are through to the final of the Jack Morgan Cup as goals from Russell Rich, Dan Hodes, James Cartmell and Martin Seifert saw them win 4-1 at Hendon Harriers.
