HEYBRIDGE Swifts secured their first home win of the season as they held on to beat Cray Wanderers 2-1 at Scraley Road.

Reece Morgan scored the opener and Neil Richmond bagged his ninth goal of the season in the frist half.

But Adrian Stone pulled one back for the visitors in the second half, but Swifts held on to pick up all three points and move to 15th in the Ryman One North.

Morgan powered home the opening goal from a Lopes cross on ten minutes and then Richmond doubled the lead on 29 minutes with a shot from 16 yards before Cray added some second half pressure.

A Stone header on 55 minutes narrowed the arrears in the second half.

Heybridge should have killed the game off on 66 minutes when Richmond intercepted a short pass back but missed the target by inches.

Cray came within a whisker of an equaliser in the 90th minute when Stone met a cross, side-stepped defender Stephen Good before blazing over from close range.
