REECE Mosanya, scorer of the stoppage time winner that beat Waltham Abbey three days before, weighed in with a double here to lift WGC back to fourth in the table.
His second and the game’s clinching goal, was an early contender for WGC’s goal of the season – a fearsome 25 yard drive into the roof of the net that sealed the three points.
Despite being without four first choice starters – Egan Ntege (suspended), injured pair Junior Moses (tendon) and Ryan Hayes (knee) and the unavailable Nick Ralfe, WGC were very deserving winners of this game, dominating 75 per cent of it.
They got their quickest start of the season so far, going 1-0 up within two minutes. The ball was played in from the right to Kendall Gyamfi, starting on the left of WGC’s front three. He swivelled and despatched a fierce effort past home keeper Ifekoya, to see WGC ahead.
On 15 minutes, the Citizens almost had a second as Gyamfi leapt highest to a fine cross in from the right by Kieran Gauthier, only to head just wide.
WGC continued to dominate throughout the opening half-hour and Mosanya cut inside to set up Reece Barrett to shoot another opportunity wide.
Beaconsfield were contained to just a single effort, a long range swerving effort from Pharrell Innocent that winged its way wide.
Then five minutes from the break, WGC deservedly doubled their lead. Luis Cantello and Barrett combined to set up a shooting chance for the
dangerous Gyamfi. He hit it hard and low, keeper Ifekoya half stopped it, but couldn’t hold on and Mosanya raced in to bury the rebound.
The visitors made a slowish start to the second-half and paid for it seven minutes after the restart, when home full-back Alex Peapell hit a tremendous, swerving low strike from distance that flew past keeper Connor Sansom to bring the Bucks home side back into the game at 2-1.
But the home revival was only a brief one.
Gyamfi went close again with a powerful, swerving effort, before WGC introduced Eddie Corbit for Barrett just past the hour mark.
With 20 minutes remaining, WGC scored a memorable third. Gyamfi and Corbit worked an opening on their right, to set up Mosanya to come in on the ball and strike an unstoppable effort into the top corner from 25 yards out – a memorable goal.
That effectively sealed the result, but WGC had several other chances to stretch the final margin.
The returned Frankie Impey made a run past half the Beaconsfield team from the back, before passing on to Gyamfi, who also cut past several home players, before being just forced out at the last.
Corbit then put in a super cross that saw Evaristo Mendes get up for a header that was inches past the far post.
But WGC also had to survive a major scare in the closing minutes as the home team’s Mekhai Grant slipped Corbit in the area and shot under keeper Sansom.
A Beaconsfield second looked a certainty, until Cantello performed some masterful juggling on the line to keep the ball out and ensure WGC won by a deserved two goal margin.
