Swindon Supermarine 3 Salisbury City 2: Supermarine will take a single-goal advantage into the second leg of this Wiltshire Premier Shield semi-final on February 10 after scoring a late winner.

Both sides found the conditions difficult to master but the hosts, who had twice fallen behind in the match, finished particularly strongly.

Salisbury opened the scoring on 15 minutes when Charlie Griffin picked his spot from 20 yards out.

A Luke Hopper drive put the hosts back on level terms eight minutes later, but Griffin restored Salisbury's lead two minutes after half-time, when he got down low to head home following a corner. In the 69th minute Supermarine levelled the scores again, when Mark Draycott found the corner of the net with a shot from just outside the box.

And Draycott claimed the winner in the 85th minute when he reacted quickest to hammer in a loose ball during a scramble in the area.
