Golden goal gives Belshina third Belarus Cup success

MINSK, May 27 (Reuters) - Belshina Bobruisk midfielder Eduard Gradoboyev scored a golden goal in extra time to seal a 1-0 win over Slavia Mozyr in the Belarus Cup final on Sunday.

The 30-year-old rose above a tired Slavia defence to head home an Alexander Sednyov cross in the 96th minute, giving Belshina their third cup win in three finals.

Belshina lifted the trophy in 1997 and then two years later when they edged out Slavia in a penalty shootout.

But the Mozyr side came back strongly in 2000 to win a league and cup double.

Belshina's cup final win also avenged a 1-0 league defeat - their first of the season - at Slavia five days ago.
