Bromley headed home four of their five goals, including three from corners, as they comfortably saw off Newport County in their festive League Two encounter in south London.

Omar Sowunmi was first to benefit from the hosts' speciality of the day and Callum Reynolds added the second before the break.

Ben Thompson provided the corner from which Reynolds headed in and also sent in the cross that Reynolds tipped on for Michael Cheek to nod home.

Jude Arthurs was on hand to head in the fourth after Thompson's shot rebounded off the woodwork.

The Exiles' efforts were rewarded when Kieron Evans hit back and Kai Whitmore gave them more hope with their second in the 79th minute.

But Thompson had the final word with the exception to Bromley's trend of the day, striking from a free-kick.

Bromley rise a place to 12th in the table while Newport slip from 16th to 18th in what was their first EFL meeting.

Newport boss Nelson Jardim:

"I'm very, very disappointed. I think we knew this would be a set-play game for the opposition and we just conceded four goals in the set plays. It's just not good enough from us.

"It's definitely an area where we have to improve. When you concede four goals from set plays, there's not much to say, but plenty of positives.

"I think we stick with a with our style. We keep scoring goals as well. And we have to look to ourselves and improve in the areas that we had to improve."
