Stafford Rangers 0-3 Burton Albion

Three first-half goals were enough to earn Burton Albion a Boxing Day victory at Stafford Rangers.

Before the match saw its first goal, it was marred by the sending-off of Rangers' Christopher Flynn in the 27th minute for a violent tackle on Albion's Kevin Poole.

The visitors took full advantage of the dismissal as they scored six minutes later, thanks to Mark Greaves, who rose highest to meet John McGrath's free-kick and head home.

Jake Edwards double the away sides advantage in the 44th minute and Edwards was on hand a minute later to make it 3-0 and round off a fabulous afternoon for the visitors.

Stafford bookings: Grayson 87, Hopkinson 90
