Aden Baldwin couldn’t have chosen a better time to score his first goals for Notts County. His brace ensured their play-off match against Boreham Wood went into extra-time, before the Magpies won in a dramatic fashion.
Notts County secured their spot in the Wembley final this Saturday (3.30pm kick-off) after coming back from a two-goal deficit to beat Luke Garrard’s team on a memorable afternoon at Meadow Lane.
Despite being behind due to goals from Femi Ilesanmi and Lee Ndlovu, Notts only needed two minutes after the break to get back into the game when Baldwin struck the ball into the bottom corner from distance.
But when it seemed all was lost, substitute Jodi Jones delivered a dangerous ball from the right that central defender Baldwin headed home to double his tally for both the afternoon and the season.
When questioned about his opinion on the match, Aden Baldwin stated: "I don't even know how to explain it,
"It is one of the best feelings I have ever felt - for Jodi to cut in and hit it as hard as he did, I just needed to connect with it, which I did, and I had that realisation that we could only go on to win the game from there. It sent shivers down my spine. It was just a surreal feeling."
Luke Williams’ side emerged victorious and booked their place in this Saturday’s final against Chesterfield. Jones’ effort found the back of the net with assistance from a touch by Joe McDonnell’s fingertip, sparking wild celebrations at Meadow Lane with supporters flooding onto the pitch.
"It just shows the togetherness between us, the staff and everyone involved with the club, along with the fans. It was a great feeling and we're off to Wembley now."
