Seconds later Paul Donald lost the ball to Webb who ran in to shoot low past the keeper. Five minutes on and a pass went to Murrell who dummied to let the ball run through to Webb and he placed it into the net.
Just before half time Bisla saw his effort blocked and his appeals for a penalty for handball were turned down by the referee.
