Leverstock Green continued their recovery with a second win and clean sheet in four days. It was a solid, if unspectacular, performance against Oxhey Jets and a comfortable 3-0 win for Steve Heath's side which moves them a further place up the table to 7th and puts their goal difference back into the positive.

Both sides have reached Herts county cup finals against the odds this season - Leverstock in the Charity Cup and Oxhey in the Senior Cup, and they are also in the Charity Shield final. Jets' team selection tonight suggested that they had one eye on their cup finals. Leverstock showed only one change from the win on Saturday, with Max Farrelly being rested after picking up a knock late on at Broxbourne and replaced by Seldyn Grant.

This was a game of few chances, with the visitors having the first one early on from a free kick just outside the box, but Carl Tasker watched the ball safely over the bar. Leverstock's first effort on goal came in the 25th minute, a corner from Ben Butler finding Grant on the edge of the box from where he flashed a shot just over the bar.

The opening goal arrived on 36 minutes. Lee Bircham delivered an excellent free kick from the centre circle and Ross Miller got on the end of it to send a header looping over Jets keeper David Jacks, who paid the price for staying on his line when he should have come out to deal with the free kick.

Jacks was also at fault for Green's second goal on the stroke of half time. Bircham's pass gave Lewis Pritchard a run at goal, and although Jacks came out to gather the ball at Pritchard's feet, he failed to hold onto it. Pritchard pounced on the loose ball and neatly slotted it into the empty net from a narrow angle.

The night didn't get better for Jacks, who was suffering from back spasms in the second half and eventually gave way to sub keeper Mark Jessop in the 71st minute. Steve Heath changed his forward line during the half, with Adam Hallissey and Junior Owusu-Akonor coming on for Pritchard and Louis Austin.

While the Green's lead was never in danger, they didn't make Jessop work too hard either as the second half passed by largely uneventfully. However, four minutes from time Bekim Culaj made a run into the box and drilled home a superb shot from the angle of the six-yard box to add a third goal for Leverstock.

There was almost a fourth goal in stoppage time as Hallissey got to the bye-line and swung the ball across the face of goal, but Owusu-Akonor just failed to make contact with it. Leverstock will hope to continue their winning run when Colney Heath visit Pancake Lane on Saturday.
