Loxwood booked a place in the Division Two Cup final after at 2-0 victory over Rye United at Ringmer.

Former Horsham defender Eddie French broke the deadlock in a clash of the top two teams in the division.

French netted six minutes before half-time and victory was completed when top scorer Damon Aston added a second in the closing stages.

Loxwood will now play either Littlehampton or Clymping in the final on Good Friday. Those two meet on Thursday evening.
