GREAT Wakering Rovers are going to Wembley!
The Essex Senior League side saw off Worcester City on penalties in the second leg of their FA Vase semi-final at Burroughs Park this afternoon.
And Marcus Bowers’ team will now be heading the home of English football to face Romford on Saturday May 11.
Wakering trailed 1-0 from the first leg but levelled the tie on aggregate with Jake Gordon firing home after just 13 minutes.
Worcester drew back level on the day with Dylan Hart on target in the 34th minute but Max Gnandi scored seven minutes from time to take the match to penalties.
Wakering held their nerve to win 5-4 on spot-kicks.
