Wands climb the table after tense victory over the Ambers

Cray Wanderers and Cheshunt met on Hayes Lane. The Wands played one hundred and twenty minutes on the previous Wednesday night- and to no avail, eventually losing at Ramsgate in the Cup- and were hoping that didn't sit heavy on their legs as they looked for a first home league win of the campaign; whilst the visitors saw striker Nnamdi Nwachuku score a hat trick last time out as they picked up three points and hoped to build a winning run. The hosts were ahead just before the half hour, Jamie Mascoll with the opener, but with twenty minutes left a debut goal from Solomon Baugh drew the Ambers level. Both sides looked for a winner, and the hosts were ahead once more with thirteen minutes left, George Porter restoring their advantage. This time an equaliser didn’t arrive, and Wands climbed out of the bottom four.
