In the 17th minute,Robbie Scott headed wide from a cross from the left with Callum Woodward forcing Garvey into another save two minutes later.
Callum Harrison had a fine game in goal for Sphinx. Early in the second half, he fisted over a Rosthill drive and then made a brave stop as Rostill beat the offside trap.
In the 53rd minute,Harrison pushed over a Scott Richards header for a corner. When the flag kick came in,the ball crashed against the bar and fell for Liam O'Shea to bundle home.
Both sides had chances with Tom Cudworth and Jamie Holmes having to clear their lines and a screamer from the hard working Dave Drennan being pushed over by Garvey in the 72nd minute.
