A Nathaniel Knight-Percival brace ensured victory in a dominant display by Histon despite going a man down.

Eastbourne keeper Michael Johnson was busy from the start but was beaten when Knight-Percival latched onto John Kennedy's corner with his head.

Adam Tann was shown a straight red card for a professional foul on Liam Enver-Marum just before half time.

But the home side remained on top and doubled their lead when Danny Wright's cross was turned into the net.
