Steelmen see off the Eagles

Remain well in the hunt

Corby Town maintained their push at the top end of the Evo-Stik League South Division One Central with a fine 4-1 victory over Bedford Town at Steel Park

The Steelmen opened the scoring from an unlikely source when Delroy Gordon volleyed in his first goal for the club from a Jordon Crawford corner.

The lead was doubled 10 minutes into the second half when Connor Kennedy skipped pasted a couple of challenges and then fired a low show past the Bedford goalkeeper.

The Eagles were handed a lifeline when Ben Ford fired home but the Steelmen rattled in two more goals to finish the job. A good one-two between Kennedy and Crawford saw the former cut the ball back and Joel Carta was on hand to score.

And it was top scorer Elliot Sandy who had the final word when he picked the ball up on the edge of the area and sent his shot into the bottom corner.

With leaders Peterborough Sports and second-placed Bromsgrove Sporting both winning, Steve Kinniburgh’s team remain in third but well in the hunt.
