CHARMOUTH booked their spot in the Perry Street Division One Cup final on Saturday in a tight semi-final against Donyatt.
A nervy first half saw the teams go into at half-time at 2-2.
Donyatt took the lead against the play in the 15th minute, but Charmouth quickly responded in the 20th with Ben Stead assisting Ashley Williams to make it 1-1.
Donyatt regained the lead after Charmouth gave away a penalty on 25 minutes to go 2-1 down but just before half-time Ashley Williams struck again to make in 2-2.
Charmouth were dominant in the second half but the Donyatt defence held firm. Penalties saw Charmouth convert all five while Donyatt only managed four.
It was an entertaining game played in difficult conditions.
Like many other local clubs, Charmouth have found it difficult to field two sides and have reluctantly decided to withdraw their Reserve team from Parry Street Division Three.
