KEY MOMENTS

G = Gorleston
2' - TT - Gilchrist plays Campbell through, he cuts inside and shoots, his effort turned away for a corner. Mann takes the corner and finding himself unmarked, Clarke fires a header towards the top left corner which requires an acrobatic save from the keeper to deny him the opening goal.
22' - TT - Gilchrist cuts through into the box and arrows in a low shot heading for the bottom left corner, but another good save from the keeper denies Thetford yet again.
31' - G - Sweeney plays through Finch and he battles on the edge of the box and finds space to shoot from the right-hand edge of the area, forcing a good save from Tom Smith.
32' - TT - Elliot Smith has a crack from the edge of area, forcing the keeper to make a save.
41' - G - GOAL (0-1) - Finch recycles a ball from a corner, curling in a cross to the far post, the keeper comes to collect but it slips through his fingers, straight to the No. 5 who nudges the ball into the open goal.
48' - TT - Elliot Smith threads through Gilchrist, he is 1-on-1 with the keeper, but his side-footed effort is well stopped by the outstretched leg of the keeper to deny Town a well-deserved equaliser.
55' - G - The No.8 gets the ball at the edge of the area, cuts backs and fires in a curling effort that is just over the crossbar.
72' - TT - Visocanskis powers in a strike from 25yards, forcing the keeper to make a save.
74' - G - A quick break from a TT corner sees Sweeney charging through on goal, but Tom Smith is quick off his line and makes a good save to deny Gorleston, conceding a corner in the process.
84' - G - The No. 16 powers in a header from a Sweeney corner, his effort narrowly wide of the post.
87' - TT - A long ball releases Visocanskis, he runs through into the box and his powerful close range effort is brilliantly blocked by the onrushing keeper, who made a number of key saves during the course of the game to pick up a clean sheet.
