The best defensive side in the league prove that they are no slouches in attack, either!
Grays Athletic and Heybridge Swifts both had the chance to leap into the top five as they met at Scraley Road. Athletic had the best defensive record of any side in the entire league, the only side to still see their goals conceded in single figures-and were looking for a fifth successive win. They went ahead on thirty four minutes, Reon Smith-Kouassi the scorer, and added a second on sixty six minutes through Louie Remi. The hosts have really struggled on their own patch this season, and those struggles were once more apparent when Luke Hirst made it three with fifteen minutes left, and there was still time for Remi to add a fourth, his fourth goal in four games. Four-nil was the final score, Athletic up to fifth.
