HEYBRIDGE SW’TS 3 PHOENIX SPORTS 2

- By Chris Daines

HEYBRIDGE Swifts came from two goals and a man down to win and stave off relegation.

Phoenix Sports took the lead through Kewki Ansah and doubled it via Zak Byron. Lewis Godbold gave Heybridge a lifeline by reducing the arrears shortly after half-time and six minutes later George Cole levelled the scores.

Heybridge then had Reece Grant sent off after 65 minutes but secured victory on 79 minutes when Godbold headed home, with the celebratio­ns for the home side beginning at the final whistle.
