Worthing’s dream of a second successive promotion is over after defeat in their National South play-off semi-final at Oxford City.

Two first-half goals condemned Adam Hinshelwood’s side to defeat and left them facing a second season in National South – having done so well to take their promotion bid this far.

Worthing were already without midfielder Jack Paxman, who suffered a broken metatarsal in Wednesday’s play-off first-stage win over Braintree, and there was more bad news before kick-off with news that keeper Harrison Male was ruled out with a rib injury. James Beresford and Alieu Secka were brought in to replace the duo.
