Bromley cut gap at the top with victory at Ebbsfleet

Bromley cut the gap at the top of the Vanarama National League with a 3-2 win at Ebbsfleet.

The Ravens took an early lead in the ninth minute as Michael Cheek turned in Corey Whitely’s cross from six yards.

Ebbsfleet equalised in the 53rd minute when Dominic Poleon slotted in at the far post, but Ben Krauhaus soon restored Bromley’s lead with an 18-yard effort.

Olufela Olomola added a well-taken third with 15 minutes left before Poleon hit a late second for the visitors.

Bromley are now five league games unbeaten and move seven points behind leaders Chesterfield, who lost at play-off chasers Solihull Moors but have two matches in hand.
