Manton's magical for Wick
TOM MANTON inspired Wick FC into the Sussex Senior Cup second round, where they will host Lewes for a second consecutive year, with an outstanding performance at second division Sidlesham on Tuesday night.
Manton set up the opener then netted twice for his first goals of the season.
Manton had a shot saved by Sidlesham keeper Simon Keen before he beat four players and crossed for Eamonn Searle to tap home after seven minutes. Searle made it 2-0 on 36 minutes when he headed home Ben Torode's corner before Manton went on a mazy run to fire home just two minutes later.
