Mixed Magpies come back at the double to grab a win

Dorset Echoby Terry Spracklen

Dorchester's mixed team of trialists and first team squad members twice came from behind to record victory in last night's final pre-season friendly against Phil Simkin's Wessex League side at The County Ground.

The Magpies fielded four new faces. In goal was Scotsman Ryszard Gorski who has Highland League experience with Huntly. Starting up front was Mark Jones, recently released by Cardiff City, but perhaps catching the eye most were Portugese duo Hardy Pinto and Ivan Forbes who played last season at Middlesex Premier side London Tigers and have recently been on trial at Yeovil Town.

Dorchester enjoyed the opening 15 minutes with James Rowe and Pinto both going close. But it was the home side who took the lead with their first attack when Steve Gilbert, one of four former Magpies in the Hamworthy side, beat Gorski with a looping header.

Within a minute, the visitors were level as Forbes delivered the perfect through ball for Pinto who steered the ball past the advancing keeper Gary Smart.

Back came Simkin's men when Hubbard supplied another pinpoint centre for Gilbert to nod down to another ex-Magpie, Nathan Walker, who supplied the finishing touch.

After a quiet start to the second half Sean Smith equalised on 68 minutes and with 20 minutes left, substitute Jones Awuah fired Dorchester ahead for the first time within a minute of coming on.
