Combined Counties Division One

EVERSLEY & CALIFORNIA

stay in the race for the play-offs after they defeated Hillingdon Borough.

Jamie Griggs added to his hattrick from the previous week by opening the scoring for the Boars in the 35th minute.

Ben Anderson doubled the lead to give Eversley a 2-0 half-time lead after he fired into the bottom corner from Paras Gill’s pass.

Gill then got on the scoresheet himself to wrap up the points early in the second-half.

It was a satisfacto­ry win for Eversley who stayed resolute to keep another clean sheet and consolidat­ed their chances of finishing inside the top four.

Matty Angell’s team are in an excellent position with 63 points from 33 games, which gives them a four point lead over the two teams below them in the table, Wallingfor­d Town and Sandhurst Town.

Wallingfor­d however, do have three games in hand to catch up on.

The Boars are on the road this weekend when they travel to face Kensington & Ealing Boro, who are currently eighth in the standings.
