A devastating 15 minute burst either side of half-time gave Prime a vital 3 points in their promotion battle on the 3G at Hayesbrook.

The visitors were missing Westcott and Flamank from their win over Rusthall, but captain Abu returned to make his 100th Prime appearance in the heart of midfield and Nowak came into the starting XI down the left-wing.

Mazurkiewicz had recovered from a back injury and was fit enough for a place on the bench alongside player/boss Goldsmith and the late-arriving Davis.

Revolution were grateful to Prime for providing the match balls after they neglected to bring any of their own along to the game! Ref Steve Seymour got the game underway as soon as a hungover linseman Goldsmith had figured out which side of the pitch he needed to be on!

Revo started knocking the ball around in their normal style but Prime were pressing the ball well as soon as the home side crossed half-way - with Ellis and Abu to the fore.

Prime had a golden opportunity to take the lead when Sykes' long ball found Ferguson clean through but his first touch was very heavy and the chance was gone as defenders flooded back to block the shot.

On 20 minutes, Revolution took the lead. Prime only half-cleared a corner and they allowed the home side's midfielder to take 3 touches and get his shot away from the edge of the box, before the ball ricocheted to another yellow shirt to fire home from close-range.

It nearly got worse for The Numbers when Revo broke quickly from a corner and with both centre-backs out of position, they expolited a 3-on-3 situation to get a clear shooting chance, but Kerton made a brilliant fingertip save to keep it at 1-0.

Prime were starting to come into the game, with Nowak and Henshall seeing more of the ball, but there was little sign of what was to come.

With just under 10 minutes left of the half, Sykes won one of a flurry of free-kicks down the left and his excellent delivery was met perfectly by Ellis who thumped a header from 15 yards into the corner of the net. The home keeper who spent most of the match outside his area was nowhere to be seen.

Within a minute, Prime were in front. Nowak and Ferguson did well to close down the Revolution centre-backs and Fergie released Henshall who calmly finished into the far corner.

The best was yet to come though as Ferguson received a ball into feet on the corner of the box and his first touch took him past his man, before cutting back inside onto his less-favoured right-foot to smash a rocket into the top-corner and put Prime 3-1 up.

There was an understandably buoyant mood at the break, but Goldsmith reminded his troops that a tough 45 minutes was still to come and the home side would obviously come out hard.

Indeed they did, but Turvey and Cary were strong in the tackle and Revo were restricted to shots from distance which Kerton dealt with easily.

Nowak and Sykes were now linking up really well down the left-hand side and after Ellis released Sykes down the left, his cross was volleyed in at the near post by Nowak for a deserved goal which seemingly put the result beyond doubt.

Mazurkiewicz came on to replace Sander at right-back with half an hour to go and he slotted in well to keep the Revolution left-winger quiet.

Excell was working himself into the ground and he nearly got his reward when on another Prime break he found himself clean through, but again his control let him down and the chance was gone.

Davis replaced Nowak who had taken a knock and with just under 20 minutes to go, Revolution got back into it when a weak corner somehow made its way to their striker whose miss-hit shot dribbled in at the near post.

Suddenly Prime sensed danger and Cary and Turvey both had to make good interceptions and Kerton needed to make some important stops.

With 10 minutes left, Goldsmith brought himself on to replace the excellent Ferguson and he put the game beyond doubt with his first touch.

He challenged their centre-back for a long ball which sailed over both of them but Goldsmith kept his feet to run onto the loose ball and stretch out a long leg to lob the keeper who was again way off his line from about 25 yards.

He then got himself involved in a typical flashpoint when he pulled the shirt of a Revolution centre-back who decided to swing an arm in his direction. The ref calmed the situation down well and no more was made of it.

The closest the home side came to pulling one back was when Kerton did well to tip a free-kick around the post but it was Prime's day and they kept up their 100% away record this season and move right into the promotion mix.
