In one attack Jim Orvis crossed from the right and found Matthew Sheedy but his header flew over the bar. In With jsy under quarter of an hour gone, Andover's first attack they almost took the lead when Reece Rusher’s well hit shot was tipped over the bar by Bradley Banda, from the resultant corner the ball found Liam Gilbert on the far post who headed it back across goal to Adam Grange but he couldn’t get a clean strike and the ball was cleared. Team Solent responded with a shot from Tyrell Mitford but it was easily saved by Jarid Hixon. Andover started to come more into the game and Reece Rusher cut in from the right hand side and curled his shot just wide of the far Post, then Adam Grange had a shot that that went just past the post and soon after Adam Grange had a another attempt on goal that was easily saved by Bradley Banda. On 24 minutes Team Solent went ahead when a cross from Jim Orvis struck Ross Gregory and was deflected into the net.
