Castletown made Isle of Man women's footballing history on Sunday by becoming the first team outside the top-flight to reach an FA Cup final.

The Division Two leaders beat Laxey 5-4 after extra-time and will now face Douglas Royal in the final.

The sides were tied 2-2 after 90 minutes to force extra-time and, with a penalty shoot-out looming, Sarah Denny scored with the last attack.

Royal reached their fifth FA Cup final by defeating Gymnasium 4-1.

Meanwhile, Rushen beat Corinthians 4-1 to maintain their 100% record in Division One. The win sees Rushen move two points clear with a game in hand over their opponents.

Elsewhere, Ramsey thrashed Michael United 7-0 to move third in Division Two.
