It was the hosts that were quickest out of the blocks and they appeared to be on their way to a routine three points as Andre Bennett and Joseph Thompson put them two goals ahead by the midway point of the first half.

That advantage remained in place until the hour-mark when Taylor Campbell scored to lay the foundations for a remarkable comeback that ensured Horden remained in second place in the table.
