The Beavers travelled to Dorchester for the second long away trip of the week.  The Beavers started brightly with a few early chances with balls being played into striker Craig Dundas and Craig Tanner looking dangerous down the left hand side.  After 18 minutes Hampton managed to take the lead after a couple of corners a third was won to keep the pressure on the home side. Ashley Smith again with the delivery managed to find Dean Wells who had been left in space in the middle of the Dorchester penalty box and managed to guide a header to the right hand side of the magpies keeper to make it 1-0 to the visitors.

Hampton managed to have a few more chances in the first half with Yaku and Tanner both having efforts. Tanners’ was a shot from outside the area having come in off the left flank to shoot just wide of the Dorchester keeper Cowards goals. Scarborough almost extended the lead from another corner but his header also just went wide.

Towards the end of the first half the home side came back into the game creating some pressure for Lovett and his defence to deal with several shots fired goal wards all coming to nothing.

The second half was a much different story to the first with the magpies looking the much hungrier of the two sides. The home side managed to draw level on the 61st minute after Scarborough had fouled Groves just outside the Beavers box giving away a free kick and also getting sent off as he was the last man. Ryan Hill had no trouble in converting the free kick for the home side firing the ball with real power into the back of the net.

Further misery was compounded on the Beavers when captain Dean Wells went in with a strong challenge on Dorchester’s Kyle Critchell this was deemed to strong for referee Cook who gave Wells his marching orders to reduce the Beavers to 9 men. Almost straight away the home side managed to punish Hampton by scoring through Groves to make it 2-1 to the home side.

Tarpey who had come on prior to Wells’ red card did show a few glimpses of an attacking threat but his efforts were in vein as he was outnumbered by the Dorchester defence.
