Ebbsfleet 5-4 Kidderminster

Recently renamed Ebbsfleet United finally overcame Kidderminster Harriers in an exciting nine-goal thriller at Stonebridge Road on Saturday afternoon.

The home side made a flying start to the match as Chukki Eribenne headed a Stacy Long cross into the top-right corner from 12 yards out.

Stacy Long was the provider again in the 12th minute as Mark DeBolla tapped in at the far post and Eribenne bagged his second just before the break with Raphael Nade setting him up with a flicked header.

Warren Goodhind scored an own goal in the 59th minute to make it 3-1 before DeBolla netted his second goal of the game to restore the home side's three-goal advantage.

Kidderminster's James Constable went on to bag a superb hat-trick with Luke Coleman notching Ebbsfleet's fifth in the 86th minute.
