Highlights: Sheppey United 3 Sevenoaks Town 4

By Ian Townsend

A seven goal thriller and three Sevenoaks points in a topsy-turvy match


Sheppey United had fallen to seven points away from fifth place, but they did have two or even three games in hand over the sides above them, so will have been confident that they could still take a play off place. They may have been less confident after the first quarter of their match against Sevenoaks Town, as by that point Oaks were two goals up, Josh Ajayi and Solomon Baugh the scorers as the visitors coasted into what looked a commanding lead. It wasn’t quite commanding enough, however, as the Ites were level by the break, Jacob Lambert pulling a goal back on thirty seven minutes and Richard Hamill equalising in added time. The hosts completed the turnaround just after the hour, James Taylor making it three-two, but the Oaks then proved they could equalise too, Corey Holder quickly making it three-three. The Ites then saw Hamill dismissed, and the visitors quickly took advantage, scoring the seventh goal of the game with seven minutes to go, Kieron Cadogan making it four-three- and the seventh goal was the last goal, Town up to tenth.
