Old Boys came back from Wolstanton with maximum points thanks to goals from Drew Bennett and Zak Barker.

Old Boys made a brilliant start when Drew Bennett headed them in front after fifteen minutes from a corner.

They were close to doubling their advantage just before the break when Will Bown's effort was headed against his own bar by a Wolstanton defender.

Wolstanton came out strong after the break but CSOB always looked a threat on the break and it was from this that they increased their lead.

Will Bown broke at pace and went around the keeper to square it for strike partner Zak Barker (pictured) to tap home.

Wolstanton chucked more men forward and had two good chances to reduce the deficit when firstly a shot was cleared off the line by Matt Anderson and then Mark Grice was brilliantly denied by Ash Knight in goal.

Old Boys continued to cause the Wolstanton defence problems and captain Sam Pettitt was close to tapping home a rebound off the keepers save.

The whole CSOB team worked their socks off and were defending admirably.

With the game six minutes into injury time the referee awarded the home side a penalty which Mark Grice duly dispatched. From the kick off, the referee blew his whistle and CSOB claimed a brilliant deserved victory.
