MICHAEL Chennells struck an injury time winner to extend Windsor & Eton's lead at the summit to 19 points on Tuesday night.

"It's a good time to score in the 90th minute," remarked manager Keith Scott.

"To be fair we didn't play that well but kept going and obviously the most important thing was to get the victory."

Following a slow start which saw the visitors have the majority of possession, the Royalists got going and Chennells was denied by keeper Mark Brown.

Gavin Smith had a header saved before the home side took the lead in the 39th minute when Matt Seedel out jumped his man and the keeper to nod Andrew Fagan's long ball into an empty net.

However, Boro were level five minutes into the second half when Fagan sent Michael Turvey tumbling in the box and Craig Davis made no mistake from the spot.

Marcus Richardson then came off the bench and almost forced a goal before the late drama. Ryan Wharton's free-kick was half cleared to Nathan jack who also came off the bench and his shot nearly went in off a defender before Chennells made sure.
