Ebbsfleet United 1 Barrow 4
Comments |
Ebbsfleet slumped to a heavy home defeat to Barrow in Blue
Square Premier on Saturday.
The Fleet had gone into the game on the back of five wins in six
matches, to move eight points away from the relegation zone, and
with the teams below them having games in hands they would have
been keen to take three points against a lowly Barrow side to put
further daylight between themselves and the drop zone.
But they were undone by a Nick Chadwick hat-trick which included
two goals in two first half minutes just before the half-hour
mark.
Chadwick put his side in front with a close range header after
26 minutes, before nodding in their second just over a minute
later.
He put the game beyond Ebbsfleet’s reach after 67 minutes when
he headed in number three for the visitors.
Moses Ashikodi pulled a goal back for Fleet when he nodded in
Peter Holmes’ free-kick with 15 minutes to go.
But Barrow restored their three goal cushion after 85 minutes
when Leon Crooks was adjudged to have handled the ball in the
penalty area and Jason Walker converted the spot-kick.
