Two minutes later it was 2-0, a deep Sam Greenhouse cross landed at the back post, Jack Dolman firing home on the half-volley.

Garforth came back into the game strongly, and the hosts had to be thankful to keeper Myles Wright, with the home stopper blocking Matt Antcliff after a defensive error.

Antcliff almost turned provider moments later, setting Matt Savage up with a one-on-one chance, again Wright came to the rescue with a fine stop.

On 33 minutes it was 3-0 to the hosts, a Rory Coleman corner met in the middle, with Bradley Beatson jumping highest to nod home.

The visitors had an opportunity to pull one back on 37 minutes, Sheffield's Jack Dolman handling on the line and receiving a second yellow, the penalty from Max Tweddle was brilliantly saved by Wright.

Garforth came out of the blocks with their tails up in the second half, and went close to a second when Dan Coupland had his effort cleared off the line, with Bradley Beatson coming to the hosts' rescue.
