There were just two changes from the team involved at Leyton seven days ago and one of them was a rare start for Windsor manager Dave Carroll.

Carroll, who has only made one start since breaking a rib in January, decided to select himself and soon showed what the side had been missing.

His free kick from a foul on David Warner was perfectly placed for Peter Holsgrove who fired over.

Cheshunt, really needing maximum points from this and their last game, could and should have been two up mid-way through the first half.

First, George Gregorio managed to get past Morgaro Gomis and get in a cross that sailed past an open goal and Darrell Cox.

Cox again should have done better when he got the better of Dave Tilbury and shot forcing Chuck Martini to save.

Those missed chances almost came back to haunt Cheshunt at the start of the second half when Peter Holsgrove had an 18 yard effort well saved.

Cheshunt did get themselves ahead on 75 minutes when Steve Obeng's free kick was headed goalwards by Darrell Cox which was palmed away by Martini and Gregorio nipped in to score.

It looked as if that last point that Windsor needed for safety was going to elude them once again until the introduction of veteran Keith Scott.

Scott was introduced just as Windsor won a free kick on the half way line.

Martini sent the ball towards the box and Scott's height made it impossible for the Cheshunt defence to get the ball away allowing Dave Tilbury to hook the ball towards the goal and Dave Reddington headed in.
