Highlights: Ashford United 3 Lancing 4

By Ian Townsend

A fine Lancers comeback earns them three points

Ashford United welcomed Lancing, both sides in good form. The Nuts and Bolts made an early breakthrough, Vance Bola scoring his fifth of the season after just three minutes, and after the Lancers levelled through Tyrone Madhani just before the half hour the hosts quickly got themselves into gear, Tom Carlse restoring their advantage and Bola almost immediately making it three-one. Just before the hour mark the Lancers got the fifth goal of the afternoon, Charlie Bennett bring it back to three-two, and with ten minutes to go the home fans were silenced, Lukas Franzen-Jones keeping his nerve from the spot to make it three-three. Did we say silenced? It got worse for the hosts just before the end, as the Lancers completed a magnificent comeback to go four-three ahead, Charlie Pitcher with the goal. Lancing go ahead of their hosts, into seventh place.
