Ryan Upward: 'I'm buzzing it went in!'

The Maidenhead United midfielder Ryan Upward is delighted to score the goal to secure FA Cup passage.

Upward scored a volley in the 91st minute to ensure the Magpies reach the FA Cup First Round.

"There were two flick-ons I think," Upward told Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio Berkshire's Adam Whitty. "It went over Adrian Clifton, then [Jake Hyde] flicked it on.

"I had a look at the goal, and I don't score many volleys to be fair, so I'm buzzing it went in."

And Upward knows just how helpful a run in the FA Cup can be for the club.

"It's great for the club financially...because we're lower league and we haven't got a massive budget.

"It helps fund the club, make the facilities better and things like that.

"It's any players dream to do well in the FA Cup from a lower league."
