Rampant Stocksbridge Park Steels climbed into the play-offs with their sixth consecutive victory.

Matt Reay and Harrison Biggins scored as the Steels continued their run of recent victories in tricky fixtures against the teams around them.

In-form defender Matt Reay netted another close range header to put the Steels in front in a fantastic opening 30 minutes.

In all big games you need a moment of genius and that came from wonder-kid Harrison Biggins. His free kick from 35 yards placed the Steels further in front.

The two goals were all they needed. Stocksbridge now face Market Drayton Town, Chasetown and Bedworth United in their final three games.

Stocksbridge Park Steels: D Reay, Meade, Grayson, Stirrup, McFadyen, M Reay, Rhodes, Biggins, Ruthven, Lumsden, Litchfield. Sub: Poulton.
