Stourbridge 2 Swindon Supermarine 1: Supermarine missed out on the chance of closing the gap on their play-off rivals when they were sunk by a last-minute decider from the home side.

The visitors went in front on 61 minutes when Joe Harris played the ball through to Mark Draycott, whose measured half-volley sailed over Lewis Solly and into the net.

The turning point of the game came 13 minutes later when Supermarine goalkeeper Matt Bulman was shown a red card after bringing down Leon Broadhurst in the box, despite the referee's assistant appearing to signal for offside before the challenge.

Alan Griffin took over in goal and, although he did well to get a hand to Broadhurst's penalty kick, he was not able to keep it out.

Just when it looked as if the game would end level, substitute Ashley Langford managed to squeeze the ball over the line during a 90th- minute goalmouth scramble.
