Two goals in the final 11 minutes gave Ebbsfleet a 3-1 victory over 10-man Weston-super-Mare in Blue Square Bet South at Stonebridge Road on Saturday.

Gareth Williams hit the post for Fleet before the visitors took a surprise lead just before the half-hour mark.

Chris Henry was adjudged to have handled the ball in the box and Nat Pepperall sent Fleet keeper Preston Edwards the wrong way from the spot.

Fleet were level a minute after half-time when Williams played in Calum Willock who drove his shot home.

Weston were reduced to 10 men after Jamie Price was dismissed for two yellows cards in quick succession, and Fleet made the extra man count.

Substitute Ashley Carew picked out Michael West and he scored with a fine shot to put Fleet in front, before Willock bundled in the third late on.
