Keyworth held the Yellows at bay early doors, but they were
undone when a corner from the right was headed home at the near post by Jordan Phillips. Phillips then tried his luck from 25 yards
but the Keyworth keeper did well to tip the goal-bound effort over the bar and into
the gardens on Salterford Road.
The second Yellows’ goal came on 37, striker Ashley Whitt
stabbing home Leon Aikman’s superb ball fired in from the right. Aikman was on
the scoresheet himself seconds later - his speculative 25 yard shot was well
blocked by the Keyworth keeper, but unfortunately he let the ball slip from his
grasp and turned to watch in disbelief as it nestled in the bottom corner.
Aikman, who was firing on all six in the middle of the park,
also had a downward header cleared off the line with seconds of the first half
remaining. H-T 3-0
It was Hucknall all the way as the second half wore on, and
only some superb saves from the United keeper kept the scoreline
respectable. With 20 to play Cameron
Davidson played a terrific ball forward that Aikmen met on the volley,
unfortunately for the midfielder, the effort flew just wide of the post.
Town did add a fourth on 83, Aikman again the provider - his neat ball
across the goal placed wide of the keeper by sub Adam Nelson. F-T 4-0
