A perfect corner onto the head of Lucas Dakin saw the lead doubled on 51 minutes.

Jamie Potts rattles the Brigg crossbar with a deflected effort a minute later.

Brigg, from the NCEL Division One, rallied and on 74 minutes carved out a golden chance when a great build-up saw the ball end up at the far post with Henry Parr, who struck the upright.

Archie Davidson in the home goal preserved his clean sheet with a fine save four minutes from time after Lewis Collins's low strike had left him unsighted, but able to produce a great one-handed stop.

Noah Simmons won the Skegness man of the match award.
