Magpies triumph in local derby

Dorset Echoby Adam Summers


Dorchester Town Under-18s came from a goal down to beat Dorset Youth Division One side Weymouth Youth in their latest pre-season friendly.

Weymouth went ahead after just ten minutes when Alex Godfrey found himself unmarked at the far post to fire the ball beyond keeper Sam Filkins.

Charlie Lee then made it five goals in as many games when he put the Magpies back on level terms on 22 minutes.

And this was by far his best of the summer, turning two defenders and hitting an 20 yard strike to give Jake Johnson no chance in the Weymouth goal.

Neil Kellaway put the Magpies 2 -1 up on the half-hour with a rebound after Dan Critchell's header had hit the bar and that is how it stayed before the break.

In the second period both sides cancelled each other out before Godfrey grabbed his second with ten minutes remaining to get his team back on level terms.

A draw now looked on the cards but just five minutes later Lewis Trevett latched on to a fine pass by Adam Taylor and slotted the ball in from close range to take the Magpies' pre-season record to three wins out of five.
