Nicholls Back to Scoring Ways

A good performance against lacklustre Bedworth saw Brakes go 3-0 up and the defence play well to restrict Bedworth's chances. The first goal, in the 18th, followed a Paul Nicholls penalty rammed home after Si Wickson was floored in the area. Nicholls went close again with a header in the 28th but scored within seconds of the second half start. Two minutes later, in the 48th, Shearsby latched on to a Webb through ball to drive hard and low into the corner, 3-0.

With both teams using their substitutes Bedworth pulled one back in the 72nd and notched a second in the last minute shortly after Andy Gregory was forced to leave the field with what looked like a nasty, ankle injury, Jonny Burgess substituted earlier, coming back on in his place.
