Young Magpies secure victory in late goal-fest

by James Tizzard


Phil Basford's under-18 side retained their 100 per cent start to their South West Counties League Cup campaign with a thrilling 4-3 victory over Hamworthy United which saw six goals scored in the closing half-hour.

Dorchester took the lead after only ten minutes through Lewis Trevett, but had to wait another 50 minutes before doubling their advantage when strike- partner Luke Turk found the net.

Hamworthy's Luice Pidgley reduced the Magpies' lead on 70 minutes and just five minutes later the scores were level when Tommy Smith scored past Sam Filkins in the home side's goal.

Dorchester were back in front almost immediately, however, when centre-back Jamie Hopkins headed home from an Adam Taylor corner.

Turk scored his second of the game in the 80th minute to restore the Magpies' two-goal lead, before Pidgley also grabbed his second of the match five minutes from time from the penalty spot to set up a nervy finish.

The Magpies held firm, however, to claim all three points and move up to fourth in group B, with a game in hand on Salisbury, Eastleigh and Team Bath above them.

Magpies: Filkins, Johnson, Critchel, Jones (Bernard 20), Hopkins, Amey (Flood 50), C. Kellaway, Taylor, Trevett (N. Kellaway 60), Turk, Chance. Subs not used: Fry, Gould.
