Portishead added a third in the 11th minute when Ethan Feltham turned his defender and calmly slotted past Vernon.

The visitors’ fourth arrived 12 minutes later when a long clearance from keeper James Walker found Feltham, who finished confidently for his second of the evening.

Five minutes later, Portishead made it 5–0. Another attack down the right resulted in a cross into the penalty area, where Feltham tapped home from close range and complete his hat-trick.

Portishead added three further goals in quick succession before the interval. In the 38th minute, a cross found Thorne, who took a good touch before finishing neatly for his second of the match.

Just two minutes later, Feltham latched on to a through ball and finished clinically to make it 7–0 and in the 41st minute Davis-Wilson snapped up Portishead’s eighth goal.

The visitors picked up where they had left off immediately after the restart, adding a ninth goal in the 47th minute when an effort from the right-hand side of the penalty area found the far corner.

Wellington pulled a goal back in the 65th minute when a long throw found Ryan Brereton, who produced a well-taken finish.
