Southend booked their place in the National League play-off final against Oldham at Wembley by beating Forest Green 4-2 on penalties.

The Shrimpers' Jack Bridge swept home four minutes from the end to cancel out Emmanuel Osadebe's extra-time header to make it 2-2 and force the shootout, with Gus Scott-Morris scoring the spot-kick which secured victory.

Osadebe had come off the bench just before the match finished 1-1 in regulation time, and within four minutes of the restart headed down Liam Sercombe's cross to the far post.

In a fairly uneventful first half Southend's Keenan Appiah-Forson hit the crossbar from the edge of the area, and it was not until the 54th minute that the deadlock was broken when team-mate Ben Goodliffe's header looped over the goalkeeper at the near post.

But the lead lasted just eight minutes as Kyle McAllister's cross was nodded in by Ryan Innis to take the game to extra time.

The National League play-off final takes place on Sunday, 1 June (15:00 BST).
