JUSTIN DONAWA
Justin Donawa started in his Solihull Moors teams match against Yeovil Town and would not only score his first goal for the club, but he would score a hat-trick.
Donawa would give Solihull the lead in the 26th minute, Jordan Cranston's corner is inch-perfect and right onto the head of Donawa, who headed home his first Solihull goal.
Yeovil equalized in the 54th minute, Rhys Murphy was in an offside position but the ball deflects into his path and he stabbed the ball home past Boot. After a conversation between the referee and assistant, the goal is given.
Two minutes later Solihull almost regained the lead as Donawa smashed an effort from 25 yards off the post, but Donawa would not be denied in the 58th minute, Ben Usher-Shipway's long throw is flicked on by Kyle Hudlin into the path of Donawa, who lashed home from inside the area for his second of the game.
In the 62nd minute Hudlin, scored the team's third. Cranston's free-kick was cleared only as far as Joe Sbarra who lofted the ball back in and the big man got there ahead of Yeovil goalkeeper to flick home.
In the 83rd minute, James Ball found space in the box and buried his shot from an angle, and then in the 90th minute, Donawa would cap off the afternoon. Donawa was played in on the right and he smashed a strike past the Yeovil goalkeeper at the near post to secure his hat-trick.
JONTE SMITH
Jonte Smith started on the bench for Woking FC who found themselves down 2 – 0 at the break on the road against Maidenhead United.
Danilo Orsi-Dadomo scored in the 16th and 25th minutes for Maidenhead. Woking would get back in the match in the 47th minute when Kane Ferinand scored, but with Smith remaining on the bench, they would not find the equalizer.
NATHAN TROTT
Nathan Trott was an unused substitute as West Ham United suffered a narrow defeat to Chelsea as Timo Werner’s goal late in the first half proved enough to separate the sides.
With both teams in the hunt in the race for the top-four, this was a tight and edgy affair, but it was the visitors who found the route to goal to claim maximum points.
