Lorne Bickley scored a stoppage-time winner as Jersey Bulls extended their winning run to four games with a 1-0 victory over AFC Croydon Athletic.

Both sides had opportunities to take the lead in an exciting first period.

Bickley hit the crossbar early in the second half while Jack Boyle also went close in south London.

But top scorer Bickley was on hand to tap in Jonny Le Quesne's low cross at the far post to secure the points in the second minute of added time.
