Hashtag United 2, Heybridge Swifts 0

Swifts' hopes of securing a play-off zone place in the Isthmian North were dashed at Hastag who leapfrogged them and moved to fourth with Saturday's (15 Otober) win at the Len Salmon Stadium.

The defeat was Swifts' first in the league this season and they will be seeking to bounce back quickly with a derby win at Witham on Tuesday (18 October).

Both Hashtag goals came in the first half, the opener after just 11 minutes from Jermain Francis. And Ben Brookes followed up with the hosts' second on 35 minutes.
