But the joy for Parkgate was to be shortlived as Boro stormed on with attack after attack and it was only moments later when Paddy Miller found the inevitable equaliser heading the ball firmly home following a corner.
Boro looked dangerous and were attacking at will, but Parkgate themselves were looking as if they were capable of scoring also and it was a thoroughly entertaining first 45 minutes, the score remained 1-1 at the interval, a Ryan Blott header just before the break was cleared off the goal line by a Parkgate defender with 'keeper Jamie Bailey looking on helplessly.
The 2nd half continued in much the same way as the 1st, Boro held the upper hand but Parkgate had their chances in what was at times end to end football.
Dave Kemp had a commanding game in the Boro defence and Kev Martin in the Boro goal made some excellent saves, just as Parkgate's Jamie Bailey did at the other end of the pitch.
So, a really entertaining game and played in the right spirit, and it was good to see a referee turning in a good performance also.
The final score was 1-1.
3 points would have been nice but in fairness, Parkgate probably felt they deserved their share of the points tonight.
BORO TEAM:
MARTIN.WINTERS.MILLER.KEMP.HACKWORTH.NAYLOR.LAW.HEPPLES.BLOTT.BERNARD.GHAICHAM.
