A STOPPAGE time winner from Scott Cubberley saw Wisbech Town beat local rivals Ely City and stretch their unbeaten run to nine games.
The Fenmen are now sixth in the Ridgeon's Premier League table, but were lucky to take all three points.
Ely should have been awarded a penalty in the first half but the referee waved play on. Keeper Alex Street also pulled off a couple of fine saves.
Wisbech took the lead in the 66th minute through Darren Jimson. He came on as a substitute six minutes earlier for Billy Smith.
