In the second half, a combination of the tired legs of Swanland and Scarborough’s fine passing play meant Boro scored at will.

Aidan Crawford grabbed four goals, Harrie Leighton got three from centre-back, speedy winger Aaron Holdsworth grabbed two and Reuben Staveley notched the goal of the game.

Staveley played a superb ball out wide to winger Louis Kille, who found Staveley 10 yards out with a superb cross, Staveley then lashed the ball home on the volley into the roof of the net.

Scarborough’s man of the match was shared between Crawford and O’Flanagan.
