AFC Fylde 1 - 3 Salford City

Salford City overcame AFC Fylde in a controversial win at Kallamergh Park thanks to a Steve Foster hat-trick.

It was Fylde though who started out brighter, having a goal from Andy Bell disallowed in the 10th minute for offside.

Even though the game was a scrappy affair, it sprung to life in the final five minutes of the first half, when a dubious penalty was awarded which Foster calmly slotted home.

Fylde hit back straight away thank to Matt Walwyn who collected Matty Kaye’s cross before turning it in.

Salford from the kick off attacked Fylde’s goal forcing Lewis Edge into a brilliant save before Foster scored the rebound.

Fylde started to find their feet in the second half but were always chasing the game against a well organised Salford team.

With Fylde pushing for an equalised Salford were dangerous on the break first hitting the woodwork before Foster completed his hat-trick with a cool finish although he appeared to be offside.

Man of the match: Steve Foster
