Steve Diggin bagged both goals as Brackley Town regained top spot in Blue Square Bet North following Monday’s 2-1 victory at Worcester City.

In a first half of few chances, Diggin turned home Owen Story’s cross to give the visitors a 16th-minute lead.

A flurry of goalmouth activity at the end of the half saw Glenn Walker’s goal bound shot hit his own player and City’s Tom Thorley hit a fierce free-kick that Billy Turley gathered gratefully at the second attempt.

The hosts grabbed the equaliser 10 minutes after the restart direct from a corner through a defensive gaffe, the goal credited to Greg Mills.

Owen Story’s 63rd-minute free-kick crashed onto the bar as both sides sought the crucial third goal and it was Saints who conjured it with 14 minutes remaining.

Fine work on the right by Walker found Diggin on the by-line in the danger zone. Diggin turned two defenders and fired home from a tight angle high into the roof of the net beyond keeper Glyn Thompson.
