Guernsey FC’s fight for safety just got a little bit more tricky.
While they lost a hard-fought game away at second placed Kingstonian 3-1, the side one place above them in safety South Park Reigate picked up a point with a 1-1 draw away at Harrow Borough.
The Green Lions still have one game in hand to overcome the now two point gap and travel to play South Park on Saturday as part of their last eight games.
Last night at Grand Drive their already squeezed squad was hit by three more injuries and they played a large portion of the match with 10 men.
Kingstonian opened the scoring on 26 minutes when captain Stan Flaherty ran onto a loose ball and played it into an empty net.
He doubled the lead just inside the hour, curling a shot into the top corner.
The home side’s leading scorer Eddie Simon made the game safe on 66 minutes, breaking into the area before finishing.
Young Fin Patterson grabbed his second goal for GFC late on, helping the ball into the ceiling of the net from close range.
