Crey Wanderers secured the FA Trophy Final with a 2-1 victory over Checent on Friday evening. The match took place at the scheduled time of 14:00 on September 26th, 2026. It was the decisive fixture in this year's tournament.
Cheycent's recent form has been mixed. They lost 2-4 to Eveli in their latest outing on September 4th. Before that they beat Leyton Orient 2-1 on July 21st. The results show inconsistency heading into the final.
Crey Wanderers arrived in better shape. They won 2-0 against Maidstone on September 22nd, following a 1-1 draw just three days earlier. Their run included a 1-0 victory over Lewis on September 8th. To be fair, they've been building momentum.
The final scoreline tells the story of a tight contest. Checent took the lead at some point but could not hold on. Crey Wanderers found the breakthrough twice to take control. By then the momentum had shifted completely.
And here's the thing about finals — they often come down to moments rather than sustained dominance. This one belonged to the visitors who saw the game out after going behind. The trophy now heads to Crey Wanderers.
