Report by Ryan Robinson.

Fourth placed Chasetown took on table toppers Halesowen, who showed exactly why they are top.

The Yeltz got off to a great start when they smashed the post straight from the off, and straight after they took the lead, when Chris Lait was put through to slot the visitors into the lead.

The rest of the half was played without either team having many gilt-edged chances until Joey Butlin fired a rocket of a shot into the far corner, to make the score even stevens at half time.

Halesowen started the second half exactly as they started the first, when Jamie Molyneux crossed into the box to allow Kyle Finn to slot the ball home.

The Scholars came close to equalising through a corner that was delivered to Luke McGinnell, whose shot was blocked on the line by a visiting defender.

Against the run of play, Halesowen extended their lead when a counter attack was squared to Lait, who grabbed his second of the game and the Yeltz third.

Chasetown came close again when Jack Langston curled a shot towards the top corner, only for the visiting goalkeeper to push the ball over the bar.

In the 84th minute Halesowen scored their final goal through Harry White slotting a rebound home, after Curtis Pond in goal had got a strong palm to the first shot, making the final score 4-1.
