Corby Khalsa 4 Corby Pegasus 0
Andrew Cox (3)
Liam Bradley

HT 0-0

Khalsa followed up last week's win over Moulton with a super second half performance to see off Pegasus in the local derby.
In the early exchanges Pegasus produced some nice football and going close on a couple of occasions with young winger Liam Bradley hooking a Pegasus effort of the line.
The back four marshalled well by Jaspal Saini again showed how good they can be with Carr, Lindsay, Saini and Park all playing prominent roles to blunt the Pegasus attacking flair.
Khalsa though were forced into an early change with Jamie Mclellan coming off with a groin injury and being replaced by Stephen Miller who played a prominent role.
With the home side having the better of it for the first 15 minutes then Khalsa for the next 15 minutes before both sides carved chances without a breakthrough.
With scores level at the break and a tactical switch at the break Khalsa took control of the game in stunning fashion when Liam Bradley beat the defender and put in a super early cross that saw Andrew Cox plant a header into the bottom left corner to give Khalsa a 1-0 lead.
Khalsa suddenly found another gear with Joe Bennett going close before he produced a fine run and excellent cross that saw Andrew Cox finish to make it 2-0.
Great work from Miller, King and Wilson teed up Andrew Cox to get his hat-trick to make it 3-0.
Though the final goal was one of the best team goals from a Khalsa perspective this season with Cox, Miller, sub Craig Hall, Wilson playing some lovely football before Young winger Liam Bradley coolly placing the ball into the bottom left corner from the edge of the box for 4-0.
An outstanding performance by Khalsa that shows good organisation on the park reaps the right rewards for the team.
