The game was effectively over inside the first half-hour. Court opened the scoring in the 20th minute, and Tom Leahy doubled the lead eight minutes later from a Ryan Hanson pass. Ken Charles made it three before the break, and a 67th-minute goal, assisted by Leone Gravata, completed the rout.

Maidstone dominated the numbers, holding 61% possession to Ashford's 39% and earning seven corners to the visitors' two.
