Shaw Lane Aquaforce pulled off a fantastic 3-0 win at Heanor Town in great adversity to end a run of two defeats.

Joe Thornton played almost the whole match in goal after stopper Ben Gathercole was stretched off in the Toolstation NCEL Premier Division clash.

Thornton even made a great save in a one-on-one situation when the scores were goal-less.

Substitute Shane Kelsey put Aquaforce in front towards the end of the first half with a strike at the back-post.

Kelsey’s cutting pass put Lee Morris through for the second goal straight after the interval.

Andrew Fox put the icing on the cake in the last minute with a close range finish for the third goal.

Shaw Lane Aquaforce: Gathercole, Stohrer, O’Brien, Holt, Cotterill, Denton, Darley, Foster, Thornhill, Morris, Thornton. Subs: Kelsey, Istead, Fox.
