Totton were looking to make their incredible home support count with a strong start, and they caused Exmouth a number of problems from set pieces. ey made the breakthrough when a smart short corner routine saw Charlie Davis felled in the box for a clear penalty, which Scott Rendell duly dispatched in the 17th minute for what would be the game’s only goal. Exmouth Town improved a er conceding, but found home goalkeeper Lewis Noice equal to everything they could throw at him e second half lacked clear-cut chances, with both sides struggling somewhat to hit their best rhythm, with the Stags wary of becoming too open and allowing the visitors a way back into the game. As the clock ticked on, the sense of anxious anticipation in the ground began to build, with a now makeshi Totton back-line a er a number of injuries defending resolutely. A er what must have seemed an eternity for the home support, the nal whistle nally came to send the stadium into raptures, with AFC Totton o cially champions with two league games still le to play, a fair reward for a team that has undoubtedly been the class of the division this season.
