Sporting Bengal United 0, Grays Athletic 3

GRAYS Athletic ended their Isthmian North season with a convincing win against relegated Sporting, with the highlight being a converted penalty by goalkeeper and club icon Danny Sambridge on his last appearance for the Blues. 

It was almost a case of 'what might have been' for Grays, who ended the season with ten wins and two draws - 32 points - from their final 12 games.

They finished ninth, eight points off the season and ruing a mid season blip that saw them slip down the table. 

Excellent build-up and a strike from Alejandro Machado opended the scoring in the 56th minute. 

Substitute Harry Hope added a second six minutes later and Sambridge scored from the spot on 72 minutes. 

Myles Dominique was sent off to compound Sporting's misery soon after.
