On a pitch that resembled a meadow more than a playing surface and against a physical Axminster team this was a potential banana skin fixture, so it was important we didn't concede the first goal for the 4th consecutive match. Zac Burnard made sure this wasn't the case when he out jumped his marker to direct a good header past the Axminster keeper to put us 1-0 up.
Whilst we were the better side for the rest of the half, Axminster missed two really good chances to equalise; emphasising that more goals were needed. In the second half two came in quick succession via a brilliant solo goal by Alfie who then turned provider with a great low cross into the 6 yard box for Matt to run onto and blast home to make it 3-0.
With about 10 minutes to go Axminster got a glimmer of hope when the referee aloud a free kick to be taken a long way from the originating foul, which ended up being scrambled into the net for what ended up to be just a consolation goal.
Man of the Match goes to Zac Burnard for getting that all important first goal and putting in real shift in midfield despite not feeling 100%.
Well done all for another great result, only two more games to go with second place still all to play for!
