BROMLEY maintained their position at the top of the table with a convincing victory, writes Patrick Harris.

Hampton adopted a physical approach with Kirk Watts and Sam Wood suffering most.

But the Lillywhites toughed it out and after a good spell of pressure took the lead on nine minutes through Watts who coolly beat Matt Lovett from 10 yards out.

Four minutes later it was 2-0 as Watts turned provider playing in Nic McDonnell who finished well from inside the box.

When tested Donal O'Sullivan, Tutu Henriques and Francis Duku were solid at the back doing a great job in containing Lawrence Yaku.

The third goal came on 39 minutes when a deep corner was headed back into danger and Adeniyi's header hit the back of the net, deflecting in off the back of Duku.

The second half started with Hampton on top but Bromley's defence holding out well.

Dudley Gardner missed with the home side's best chance before Bromley sealed the victory on 85 minutes with a superbly worked goal.

Adeniyi, Adrian Stone and Mark Corneille combined to set up Tony Boot who volleyed home from six yards out for his first league goal of the season.

The comfort of this victory over last season's defeated play off finalists left Bromley fans pinching themselves.
