Wroxham got back to winning ways as two goals from Josh Carus helped them on their way to victory.

Carus gave them the lead after 28 minutes when the ball wasn't cleared from the Haverhill area following a corner, Carus turning the ball in on the goal line.

Less than 2 minutes into the second period the hosts were level, Richard Heller having a shot parried by goalkeeper Duncan McAnally and Shaun Banham seeing his rebound cleared off the line by defender Shaun Howes; Marcus Hunt, however, would not be denied and he headed the ball past Howes from close range.

With Haverhill pressing for a winner Wroxham hit them with two goals near the end of the match to instead give them the spoils, Danny White breaking the offside trap in the 83rd minute but finding that he had gone too far past 'keeper Ed Campbell; with this he cut the ball back for Gavin Lemmon to fire the ball in to the net from 10 yards out via the underside of the cross bar.

Carus then grabbed his second, and Wroxham's third, six minutes later when he beat Campbell at his near post from an Andrew Key corner and headed the ball in.
