Spencer Tinkler's neat and tidy finish from a set piece move divided the sides at the interval. But Rangers had chances to get further ahead, thwarted by good goalkeeping.

In truth despite the gale at their backs for the second half, it was Rangers who looked more likely than Wisbech to add to the goal tally.

Harvey Thorne was impressive throughout and had a couple of hits from range that could have gone in on another day.

Jacob Goodley (pictured) revelled in a full back role when raiding forward, skipping through midfield and setting up Bailey Baker for a snapshot.

But a moment of confusion was enough to undo all of that good work.

A contested throw in down the Wisbech left was indicated Deepings ball by the linesman and a Wisbech ball by the referee. In the resulting confusion, ex Posh academy player Luke Harris saw his chance to collect the ball and wind assisted smash it into the danger zone. It was one of those that Aaron Butcher could neither leave nor come for with a gaggle of bodies around the penalty spot.

It summed up the current spell for Deeping by hitting sailing into the top corner.

Shell shocked, Rangers tried to pick up the pace but were undone again with a ball into the box and neat finish by Sam Bennett. He had a third ruled out soon after for offside.

Wisbech, under ex-Rangers Manager Luke Hipwell, will rightly point to their resilience and ability to hang in the game when the wind was battering their faces. But to come so close and lose will hurt Deeping badly.

If we get another performance like that from Deeping on Saturday we have a good chance against Melton.
