The game was watched by a capacity crowd of 9,252 which was Trinity's best home attendance for more than a decade. There were scenes of wild celebration among the home players and fans after the final whistle and Powell admitted: “I’m exhausted!”

The victory was a perfect late birthday present after Powell turned 60 on Monday and he reflected: “It was a really tight game, 8-8 at halftime and then we win by a point having been behind - it was a really tough game, but I am really proud and pleased for the whole club.
