Harriers moved back up to fourth in the Conference with their ninth league home win of the season which was closer than it should have been. Justin Richards returned to the starting line-up after missing two games through injury while Dean Bennett came in for just his fourth start of the season in place of the suspended Andy Ferrell. Harriers got off to a great start, taking the lead in the ninth minute when Richards got a touch to Martin Brittain's right-wing cross. Initially the goal was awarded to City defender Jon Bass but subsequently re-assigned to Richards for his 13th strike of the season. Harriers dominated the first half and created a number of good chances to increase their lead. Bennett went close with a shot from the edge of the penalty area that James Bittner in the visitors' goal did well to push away for a corner. The second goal arrived on the half-hour; Adam Bartlett's long clearance set Matt Barnes-Homer clear on goal, he waited for Bittner to commit himself before shooting past him only for his shot to come back off the post, he was quick to get to the rebound, however, to force the ball over the line. At the other end Charles Ademeno got to the byline on the right before pulling the ball back to Robert Sinclair who shot wide of the far post. Harriers continued to press, though, and a Brittain corner from the right was only cleared as far as Russ Penn whose shot was saved at the expense of another corner. In the last minute of the half Brittain's pass set Richards clear but he shot at the keeper. Harriers were made to pay for that miss in stoppage time when sloppy defending allowed Brian Dutton to get to the byline and cross to an unmarked Charlie Griffin who headed in. After the break Harriers soon restored their two-goal advantage; Richards and Barnes-Homer combined to set up Brian Smikle on the left wing, his cross was turned in to his own net at the far post by Scott Bartlett. Salisbury lifted their game in the second half and could have got themselves back into the game just after the hour mark; Ian Herring's free-kick from deep on the right found Dutton beyond the far post but his header was saved by Bartlett at the expense of a corner. The visitors managed to reduce the arrears shortly afterwards; more sloppy defending allowed Daniel Webb to get to the byline and cross to the far post where an unmarked Griffin was able to knock the ball back to Dutton who scored with a looping shot over Bartlett. Harriers didn't trouble Bittner throughout the half until two minutes from the end when Barnes-Homer received a pass through the inside left channel and held off his marker before hitting a shot that beat the keeper but came back off the far post. |
