Goals in each half from Sam Francis and Mark Pulling gave Worthing a comfortable passage through to the final of the Sussex Senior Cup at Horsham last night.

Rebels, dreaming of a league and cup double, will make their first appearance in the final for five years.

That last final appearance was a win under the stewardship of Sammy Donnelly, who was left with no complaints as boss of Three Bridges last night as the County League side went down before a crowd of 389.

Leading scorer Francis extended his goal tally to 32 just before the break to give Worthing the lead with a glancing header from 15 yards following a corner by Pulling.

Former Albion and Rebels striker Simon Funnell hit a post for the hosts early into the restart but Pulling put the tie out of their reach on 65 minutes by rolling the ball in after turning inside the six-yard box.

Pat Massarao was denied a late consolation when Will Packham palmed away his shot.
