Romsey scored their third not long after but a determined Andover side hit straight back from the pushback earning a penalty stroke, which Jack Trott dispatched.

Andover pushed for an equaliser but all chances of a fightback were ended two minutes from time when Romsey struck to finish the game at 4-2.
