WANDERERS LET OFF THE FIREWORKS IN THRILLER

FIREWORKS were on display at Cherrywood Road in a game that crackled and fizzed with plenty of bang for your buck.

Dorking defied their indifferent away form, tearing out of the traps. They held possession and targeted Farnborough's right-back area but two cut-backs saw Niall McManus blazed over each time.

For Farnborough it soon became apparent the only way to get themselves into the game was via counter-attack and Millar Matthews-Lewis.

One such move bore fruit as two Farnborough goals in rapid succession left the visitors shellshocked. First, Richard Chin found Joe Haigh timing a run in behind the Dorking defence and he was able to pick his spot from the edge of the box.
