Report: Harriers see off Ferriby

---

A PROFESSIONAL performance from Harriers saw them pick up an impressive and disciplined 4-0 win over North Ferriby United at Aggborough.

Skipper Ryan Croasdale grabbed two more goals while Joe Ironside and Elton Ngwatala were also on target – all in the first half.

Harriers saw out the game resolutely in the second half to pick up a clean sheet to boot.

If it was a job that looked simple enough now, that’s only because of the work done inside that first 45 minutes; Ironside’s opener coming with just seven minutes gone as he side-footed home Ngwatala’s cross.

Croasdale made it two as he rounded the goalkeeper to latch on to Ngwatala’s pass and finish into an empty net on 16 minutes, before provider turned scorer and the Frenchman drilled home a finish from a tight angle.

Andre Brown and James McQuilkin both had good chances to add to Harriers’ tally before Croasdale duly did with his second on 40 minutes, an arrowed finish into the far corner following good advantage play by the referee.

If the first half was shine and sparkle, the second was solid and assured – the hosts saw the game out with minimum fuss while still trying to add to their score.

Off the bench, Emmanuel Sonupe’s pace caused the visitors plenty of problems after the break, a brace of McQuilkin chances keeping shot-stopper Durrant honest.

Eleven after the restart, North Ferriby’s only real chance of the night brought a fine save from Brandon Hall who flung himself away to his right to palm away Warren’s shot.

Soon after, McQuilkin should have made it five when, in space, he curled the ball beyond the top corner.

Sonupe’s tricky ensured the reds finished the game on the front foot as they prepare for an FA Trophy trip to Boston United on Saturday.
