Woking 0 Guiseley 1: Emile Sinclair the star as Mark Bowers's men eye safety

Manager Mark Bower enthused: “It was a good all-round team performance. We had chances, Emile Sinclair and Liam Dickinson deserve a lot of credit for the way they worked together, and I’m pleased we are leaving with the victory.”

Sinclair soon worked his way into the area and unselfishly passed to Liam Dickinson, who was able to tap home.

Guiseley could have doubled their lead soon after, when Rob Atkinson saw his header saved by Jake Cole.

Sinclair, on a one-month loan from York, ripped the Woking defence apart with a solid run, but again Coler was in his way.

There was a long delay when Shaun Jeffers went down and had to be stretchered off.

Woking would end up having their best chance of the whole match in the seventh minute of stoppage time when Giuseppe Sole turned and shot, but goalkeeper Steven Drench, who had a relatively quiet day, was there to make a fine save.

Guiseley had still created the better chances during the second half, but were unable to get past Woking’s goalkeeper, who enjoyed an inspired day.

Sinclair had the best chance of the second period but his effort was scooped over the bar.

In the end, the Guiseley fans were left to celebrate their third away win this season, which leaves them in 17th position, three places and seven points clear of Halifax.
