Westbury striker Wayne Wheeler scored what will undoubtedly be his team's goal of the season to put them 2-0 ahead in this action packed match at The Hand Stadium.

With his side coming under pressure as the hosts searched for an equaliser around the hour mark, Wheeler received the ball 20 yards from goal, took a touch with his left leg and volleyed a right footed screamer into the top corner.

It was the sort of moment that would be shown over and over again if scored at the highest level, however it will never be seen again.

On a sunny and windy afternoon the first half was largely scrappy with neither side able to put a good move together.

Chances came by way of defensive errors. Clevedon's Greg Andrews and Danny Clarke beating the offside trap and forcing Nick Evans into good saves, while Danny O'Brien in the home goal did well to deny Ashley Groves and Matty Smith.

Westbury took a one goal lead into the break courtesy of a penalty awarded on 27 minutes.

Smith lofted the ball into the box where Andy Woodlands climbed all over Dan Kovacs and the spot kick was given, Smith stepped up to score confidently by putting the ball low to O'Brien's right.

There was far more action in the second half. Nathan Hallett put two attempts wide while Andrews set up Pawel Bartnikowski and, with just Evans to beat, he was denied as Westbury's in form keeper made a brave save.

Matt Fisher outpaced Aaron Billett (substitute for the injured Bobby Mitchell) on 59 but as the pair clashed no foul was given and Westbury broke quickly.

The ball was played to Wheeler and he unleashed his superb moment of skill and power to double the lead.

Clevedon stepped up the pressure as they searched for a deserved goal : Evans did well twice to deny Bartnikowski and Andrews while Woodlands, given too much space by Westbury's defenders, put a free header wide at a corner.

It was Andrews who reduced the arrears for his side on 67 minutes after James Springett played a lovely through ball to Andrews. He ran into the box before putting a classy finish past Evans.

Westbury immediately regained their two-goal advantage in bizarre fashion.

Nick Ridout, under pressure on the halfway line, hopefully launched the ball forward and Dan Kovacs jumped to challenge O'Brien in the six yard box with the ball ending up in the net as Kovacs claimed the final touch.

The home side made it 2-3 with seven minutes remaining when a poor back header by Ridout was intercepted by Fisher and he rounded Evans before rolling the ball over the line to set up a tense finish.

But Westbury managed to hold on to ensure their rise up the table continued.
