It was a wet and gloomy day that greeted the two teams at The Pakex Stadium

Aylesbury chose the same 16 as they had for the defeat of Histon, the first time this season that has been possible and it was a much better performance as a result.

Aylesbury took the lead on 7 minutes, when the ever dangerous Alex O'Brian's got forward into the Potters Bar box and his shot was deflected into the corner of the net past a helpless keeper.

The home side came back with shots from Michael Murray, his free kick deflecting off the wall, but just over the bar, and Eoin Casey being played in, but shooting straight at Kyle Forster. the equaliser came on 32 minutes. Murray's free kick, only hit the wall, but his follow up, was deflected through to Chris Doyle, who laid off the ball to Casey to side foot past Forster.

Aylesbury might have been ahead 4 minutes later, but somehow, the ball was deflected over the bar. Then on half time, Ravan Constable pulled off a great save as Bamford was put through.

Immediately from the restart, Casey's lob from 35 yards only just missed and Murray had a shot brilliantly saved by Forster again in the FC net.Then on 48 minutes, Chris Doyle powerfully headed a Murray corner into the top of the net, off a defender, for a 2-1 lead. Sean Grace then had a similar header crash against the bar.

Aylesbury's pacey substitutions then changed the game as the visitors ran more at the home defence. McCluskey had to clear one effort away from his line, after Constable was beaten and Will Wambeek did the same, but that came from the defences own mistake.

The 'Scholars' weathered the storm and wrapped the game up on 74 minutes. A breakaway by Ashley Nathaniel-George on the left, saw him cut inside three defenders and calmly curled the ball into the far corner, past Forster and the goal that sealed all three points
