Town were the stronger team in the first half with Marcus Bowers and Alex Smith going close but the match remained goal-less at half time.

Town took the lead, seven minutes into the second half when a corner from Marcus Bowers was headed home by Josh Stead and five minutes later Town went further in front. Adam King hit the ball down the left wing to Marcus Bowers who flicked the ball on to be met by Jason Potter. He lobbed the oncoming goalkeeper to put the match beyond doubt.

Town's defense were put under severe pressure from the home forwards after two "goals" were dis-allowed for offside, Newham deservedly equalised in the 40th minute from a corner.
