Highlights: Maldon & Tiptree 5 Lowestoft Town 3

By Ian Townsend

An eight goal thriller, and a shock outcome from the home of jam!

Lowestoft Town were on the road, travelling to Maldon & Tiptree. The Jammers opened a ten point gap over the bottom four with a fabulous win over our third place side, coming from behind and hitting five goals. Maldon went ahead on five minutes through Toluwani Ayoola, but within two minutes Adam Hipperson had equalised from the spot and just before the break Jake Reed gave the Trawler Boys the advantage. Ten minutes after the restart the hosts levelled, Michael Salako with his first goal for the club, and the Jammers then took control, Louie Remi putting them ahead for the first time and Ayoola adding a fourth. Reed then brought the deficit back to one goal, but the last word went to Terrell Egbri, who got a fifth just before the end.
