In the second half, the visitors took a firm grip of the game, with Turner, Cameron Johnson, George Wilson and Shem Atkinson netting one apiece for the victors.

The pick of the Newlands goals was Turner's second, a cracking half-volley set up superbly by a precise pass from sub Terry Dixon.

Ayton Reserves eased to a 4-1 win at Scalby thanks to a stunning first-half performance.

Si Coupland, man of the match Luke Dunn, Aaron Armstrong and Nicko Dunn hit the target before the interval, and although the home side responded with a penalty early in the second half Ayton had already done enough to secure victory.

Player-manager Steven Frederiksen said:"Luke Dunn was man of the match, but Paul Mills, who was alongside him in central midfield, also had a great game, his assist for Luke's goal was outstanding."

Ali Caw and David Bell both hammered in hat-tricks as Angel claimed a magnificent 7-1 home win against Crown Tavern.

Caw's double strike handed the early advantage to the home side, his first effort a stunning volley from 25 yards which flew into the top corner.

Bell made it 3-0, but David Barber pulled a goal back for Tavern before the interval.

Hot-shot Bell struck twice in the opening 15 minutes of the second half to complete his treble, then Caw made it 6-1, completing a fine team move to round off his own hat-trick.

Sub Benny Davis finished off the win with a composed finish from the edge of the penalty area.

Central midfielder Jackson Jowett was the man of the match for Angel.
