Five-star Solihull thrash Aldershot as Joe Sbarra hot streak continues
Solihull scored four first-half goals on their way to a 5-1 victory at shell-shocked Aldershot.
Moors blew their opponents away in a dominant opening 45 minutes, taking the lead after just six minutes through Joe Sbarra’s low finish.
They doubled their advantage in the 38th minute when Conor Wilkinson touched in Jacob Wakeling’s strike and Alex Whitmore added a third before Sbarra took his tally to six goals in three games with a fourth in stoppage time.
Beleaguered Aldershot finally threatened in the 53rd minute when Ryan Jones’ effort was blocked by Whitmore and Christy Grogan was denied by Laurie Walker.
But it was Solihull who added a fifth when Emmanuel Sonupe turned the ball home three minutes after coming on as a substitute.
Aldershot’s misery was compounded when Grogan was sent off for a second bookable offence, but they did score a consolation through Josh Barrett’s neat flick with six minutes remaining.
