He got the ball stuck under his feet as he slid in to finish from close range just five minutes in, before he was denied excellently one-on-one by Stanley goalkeeper Ollie Wright, 15 minutes later.

Sellars-Fleming got his goal and a much-deserved opener for the hosts in the 58th minute, firing in off the near post from outside the box, cutting in from the left flank.
Devon Matthews was shown a straight red for a heavy challenge on Clarke Oduor in the 86th minute to cripple the visitors' late push for an equaliser
