Anvils dominate first half but Steyning turn the tables in the 2nd half

The Anvils on max points with two away league wins. Steyning looked very edgy in the 1st period with the Anvils dominating. Michael Wood opened the scoring on 3mins and added another on 19 mins. In truth the Anvils could have gone in at HT 4 or 5 goals to the good.
Steyning came out in the 2nd Half much more determined and forced the Anvils to defend resolutely. Steyning pulled two goals back on 59 & 81 mins and looked as though they might get a winner. But it wasn’t to be as The Anvils rallied late on and a series of penetrating runs ended with a penalty being given and Oli Leslie made no mistake to hit the winner on 86.
Two wins in a row puts the Anvils in 4th place in the table. A rest from league duties next Saturday when the Anvils take on Newhaven at home in the Emirates FA Cup
