Fishtoft started the first half in strong fashion and found themselves four goals to the good at half time after a clinical Neil Allen hat trick and a strike from Ant Slater.
The second half saw the momentum swing the other way as Fishtoft sat back and Swineshead fought hard to bring the game level at four apiece with a little over 10 minutes to go.
However, with the clock ticking down, Fishtoft skipper Ben Parkinson strolled into the Swineshead box to stroke the ball past the keeper and give the home side all three points. Final score 5-4.
