Fylde 0-3 Salford: Class of 92 owned club win play-off final to earn Football League promotion for first time in their history
Salford have been promoted to the English Football League for the first time in their history after beating AFC Fylde 3-0 in the National League play-off final.Emmanuel Dieseruvwe fired Salford in front in the 15th minute following a defensive mishap, with Carl Piergianni’s second-half header and a fortunate third by full-back Ibou Touray completing what was in the end a comfortable victory.4

Salford will be playing in League Two next season

Salford, who finished the regular season in third place, beat Eastleigh on penalties to book their place in the final, while Dave Challinor’s Fylde side first came through an eliminator against Harrogate and then won 1-0 at Solihull.Alexander was forced into a change as striker Adam Rooney was sidelined by injury, so Danny Whitehead came into the Salford side.Fylde made a sharp start as the ball flew across the face of goal, just too far ahead of Alex Reid.At the other end, Gibraltar international Scott Wiseman drilled a 25-yard effort just wide.BT Sport4

The Class of 92 enjoyed every minute of the victory

Salford broke the deadlock in the 15th minute when Dieseruvwe made the most of a fortunate break in the penalty box.Devonte Redmond’s free-kick was kicked out by Danny Rowe, but the ball struck Luke Burke and dropped back goalwards, where Dieseruvwe slotted into the far corner.Defender Burke was soon forced off with what looked like a hamstring problem he had picked up earlier, and former Salford man Nick Haughton came on.Salford almost grabbed a second in the 24th minute when Nathan Pond’s diving header from a corner was just wide.4

Mani Dieseruvwe gave Salford the lead

The Coasters should have been level when Andy Bond was played into the right side of the penalty area by Haughton, but he clipped his angled shot over the crossbar.Fylde pressed again before the break, with Salford keeper Chris Neal pushing away Ryan Croasdale’s curling shot.Jordan Tunnicliffe received treatment for a head injury, which saw six minutes of time added ahead of the interval.Salford doubled their lead early in the second half.4

Supporters were delighted on their day out at Wembley

A quick short corner saw the ball swung into the six-yard box from the right, where defender Piergianni arrived to power a header into the top corner.Any hopes of Fylde mounting a comeback were effectively ended on the hour as Salford enjoyed another slice of good fortune.Full-back Touray charged down the left and clipped the ball back across the face of goal, where it dropped over the goalkeeper and in off the far post.Fylde, set to return to Wembley for the FA Trophy final, looked for a consolation late on, but James Hardy sent his effort into the side netting.
