Two goals in each half saw Ebbsfleet demolish Stevenage as the visitors dismal start to the season continued.

John Akinde latched on to Craig Stone's cross to slide in at the near post in first-half stoppage time.

The home side won a penalty midway through the second half when Ronnie Henry fouled Akinde and Luke Moore stepped up to smash the ball home.

Kezie Ibe volleyed home from Akinde's cross with six minutes to go to seal Stevenage's afternoon of misery.
