Linby CW FC 2 Kimberley MW 0
L. Parker, N. Davies
Despite the growing unavailable list, Linby collected three points from third placed Kimberley. In a much improved display, they were more solid, starting in a 4-5-1 formation, with new signing Steve Thompson in a midfield trio with Jake Keetley and Luke Parker.
In a tight closely fought first half Linby had the two stand out chances. Firstly Julien Wright shot wide on 16 minutes after good work from Thompson. Nick Davies then curled a shot inches wide on 29 minutes after a flowing Linby move, which had the Waterloo Road stand Faithful purring. HT 0-0
On 54 minutes, Jonny Scott put a good chance wide after good work by lone stiker Wright. As the pressure mounted on the visitors goal, Luke Parker saw a terrific shot clawed away by Luca Rocco.
On 64mins, the breakthrough finally came, Davies' corner was only cleared to the edge of the area where Parker pounced to hit a stunning half volley in off the bar from 20 yards out, 1-0.
Linby began to get slightly nervy as Kimberley enjoyed their best spell of the game. Craig Lear did well to save dangerman Jake Fishers shot on 72mins.
The win was finally sealed on 90mins, when a driving run from sub Darren dickens opened up the Kimberley defence. He found Nick Davies with a sublime pass which he in turn planted the chance into the top corner. FT 2-0
