Hampton & Richmond Borough scored the 100th goal of their league campaign and took another step towards promotion to National League South with a 3-0 win at Farnborough.

Former Brentford midfielder Eddie Hutchinson, who played more than 100 league games for the Bees, took them to their century when he opened the scoring with a low drive at Cherrywood Road.

Brendan Kiernan added a second on 38 minutes and Moussa Diarra stretched the lead further just after the break.[phone][/phone]

Hampton are four points clear at the top of the Ryman Premier Division, with two games to go, but third-placed Bognor are their primary challenger, as they have four to play.

If Bognor slip up against Wingate & Finchley on Tuesday, Hampton would wrap up the title next weekend with a win at Grays Athletic.
