HT:0-2 Anvils

2nd half was a more even contest. Lingfield pulled one back on 51mins 1-2 but the Anvils replied almost immediately on 54 mins with an excellent strike from Oli Leslie 1-3. A penalty for handball was destined to reduce the Anvils lead but an excellent save from Freddie Leather in the Anvils goal, diving to his left, kept Anvils lead. Lingfield did get one back on 94 mins just before the final whistle. Anvils go through to play Larkfield & New Hythe away in the 3rd Rd of the FA Vase.
