Ashley Flynn’s hat trick helped AFC Emley maintain their promotion push with a 4-0 home win over Teversal.
The Huddersfield side are fifth in the Northern Counties East League First Division, which for the first time will feature play-offs.
And Darren Hepworth’s side will aim for a fifth straight league win at home to Westella VIP on Saturday.
Prolific striker Flynn has already smashed the league record for goals in a season, and now has 61 in all competitions.
His first came after seven minutes when Flynn headed home from a free-kick.
A clash between Emley’s Kieran Ryan and Richard Guest brought the home side a 29th-minute penalty and the Teversal man a straight red card.
Flynn duly notched from the spot.
Teversal were reduced to nine men early in the second half when James McCann received a second yellow card.
A clinical finish by Ruben Jerome in the 72nd minute made it three.
Then Flynn netted the final goal with a stoppage-time header from a Ryan cross.
