George Smith gave Maldon the lead after 14 minutes after he latched onto Louis Britton’s through ball. The hosts doubled their lead on the half hour mark thanks to a lovely finish from Matt Yates lifting the ball over Harry Fairs.

Louis Britton added a 3rd with 35 mins on the clock, rounding Fairs to slide home.

Witham got a foothold back in the game deep into first half stoppage time thanks to a wicked deflection off of Jayden Randell to deceive Luca Collins.

Town thought they’d bagged a second before the break, but the goal was ruled out by the referee who’d already blown for a Witham free kick.

Witham stepped up the pressure in the second half and in truth, were the only side who looked likely to win. A 30 yard thunderbolt from Josh Osude brought Witham to within a goal with 30 minutes left and then completed the comeback as he slid home the rebound after Collins had made a fine save after 71 minutes.

Sesay’s goal in the 94th minute sparked wild celebrations for the Witham faithful as another inconsistent season for the Jammers came to a disappointing end.
