VIDEO: Mullets exit cup on penalties
ARUNDEL Football Club suffered penalty heartbreak last night when they lost 4-3 on spot-kicks to Eastbourne Town in the semi-finals of the Sussex RUR Cup.
The game had finished 1-1 after extra-time.
Jack Turner gave Eastbourne the lead on five minutes when Mullets keeper Tom Boyle could only parry a Danny Ellis header into his path.
Arundel were level just a minute later when Scott Tipper was sent clean through and coolly slotted past Greg Nessling.

Tipper went closest to a winner in extra-time, before Eastbourne progressed on spot-kicks and will meet Loxwood in the final.
