The verdict:

Ewell secured a vital 3 points in a game that fell into the ‘must win’ category following a disappointing string of league results in the last month or so. Despite suffering the disappointment of being pegged back from a seemingly commanding position, they continued to look for a winner and were duly rewarded in the dying stages.
