Again much like last week, the wind made it really though conditions for both teams today. Borussia started on the front foot, with a couple of excellent saves from Bears' goalkeeper Harpin keeping them level, until on the 35 minute mark. Adam Bowman slid a deliciously weighted pass in between left-back and centre-back for Kenley, whose been in red-hot form, to open his body up and finish first time bottom corner.
Just before half-time, the Bears hit the bar in their closest attempt of the afternoon with a speculative volley following a cleared corner that had Joe Botchin beaten all ends up. He was delighted to see it hit the woodwork.
The second half had very few chances until with around ten minutes to go Borussia found the killer goal needed when Ollie Smith scooped the ball over the bears defence for Kenley to smash home on the half-volley.
Borussia didn’t stop there, with Mitchell Gerber doing some brilliant work to beat three defenders and pull it back for Kenley to complete his hat trick.
The rout was well and truly completed when with the last kicks of the game, Ollie Hart played Joe Woolf through who looked offside, the ball was left by the whole Bears' defence and Woolf, which allowed Kenley to storm through and finish well for his fourth.
