The home side took the lead from the penalty spot but a free kick from Jacob Smith rattled the crossbar and dropped into the six yard box for Mason King to power in the rebound.

The comeback was completed when Danny DeSouza held his nerve to score from the penalty spot after a foul from the home keeper.

Man of the match Cameron James – a dominant performance in defence.
