BOWERS & Pitsea are through to the Isthmian North play-off final after beating Felixstowe & Walton United on penalties.
Bowers took the lead after 18 minutes with TQ Addy on target before the hosts equalised just before the break with Joshua Mayhew firing home.
Bowers regained the lead in the 78th minute with Benas Vaivada hitting the back of the net but James Collins' were heartbreakingly unable to hang onto the lead with Felixstowe's Joshua Hitter equalising in added on time.
The score remained 2-2 after extra time before Bowers triumphed 4-2 on penalties.
Geofrey Okonkwo, Vaivada, Olly Sotoyinbo and Ben Williamson all netted from 12 yards for Bowers while goalkeeper David Hughes saved from Mayhew and Ben Fowkes.
Bowers will now host Brentwood Town in Saturday's final at the Len Salmon Stadium.
