Southern Youth League - Lewisham U18s 2 Dorking U18s 4

Dorking U18s extended their lead at the top of the Southern Youth League South Section to 5 points with a competitive win at Lewisham.
 
The win makes it a good week for Dorking FC following the first team's solid 2-0 win earlier in the week over Sandhurst Town at Meadowbank.
 
The Under 18s are having a fine season, still unbeaten in the league, but manager Simon Coffey knew that the trip to Lewisham would prove one of the sternest tests for his side so far this season.  The team now boasts 6 players with first team experience under their belts and the confidence given from first team exposure is being sensibly turned to the Dorkign Under 18s advantage by Coffey and his management team.
 
A two hour journey in rush hour traffic to the SE London club did not help preparations, but Chicks youngsters were out of the blocks quickly nonetheless , a hapless Lewisham defender inadvertently scoring an own goal from a whipped cross from Lewis Armstrong under pressure from Dorking striker Ryan Stewart.
 
1-0 at half time, Dorking stepped it up in the second period, Stewart making it 2-0 from a Jack Murrell cross soon after the break.  LEwisham were making a game of it though and pulled a goal back soon after, but Dorking were able to extend their lead to 3-1 midway through the half when a Harry Maneh half volley from the edge of the box sailed past the keeper, then Josh Clark scored a header from a corner to make it 4-1 with 15 minutes to go.  Lewisham kept pushing and were awarded two penalties in quick succession, keeper Henry Warne saving the first, but unable to keep out the second as the home side reduced the arrears.  Dorking were content to see out the game to claim yet another win.  Dorking Under 18s face Balham at home in the League Cup on Wednesday 23 November, kick off at Meadowbank 7-45pm.
 
Team - Henry Warne, Marcus Legg, Josh Clark, Connor Torrisi, Isaac Philpott, Lewis Armstrong, Jack Murrell, Darryl Jeeves, Tom Coffey (c), Harry Maneh, Ryan Stewart subs Callum Worsfield, Steven Batchelor, James Baker
