Ebbsfleet extended their winning run to six matches with a comfortable FA Trophy victory over Gloucester at Stonebridge Road.

The result means Steve Brown's side came through November with an unblemished record, so the Fleet boss is well in contention for the Skrill South manager of the month award.

Billy Bricknell opened the scoring three minutes before half-time when Chris Sessegnon's cross was helped into his path.

Eight minutes after the interval, Bricknell turned provider for Ebbsfleet's second goal. His flick-on found Michael Thalassitis, who produced a confident finish to beat Gloucester keeper Mike Green.

The struggling Skrill North side almost halved the deficit through Darren Mullings but Fleet keeper Preston Edwards denied him with a terrific save.

And the first-round tie was settled in spectacular fashion when Daryl McMahon spotted Green off his line and lofted a 40-yard free-kick into the top corner.
