Dunston came out on top in a full blooded encounter away to Tadcaster Albion last night, to claim their first league win of the season.

The hosts lead going into half-ime, thanks to an outstanding Mario Basic free kick on 34 minutes.

As much as Tadcaster pushed to increase their lead, the game turned with the dismissal of Eddie Church on 65 minutes, the referee brandishing a straight red card for an over the top challenge.

With a 1 man advantage Dunston upped the pressure on their opponents.

Michael Pearson grabbed an equaliser with 5 minutes of the game to go. Rising well to connect with a Jack Elliott corner, he glanced his header beyond the reaches of Tadcaster keeper Harrison Davison-Hale.

A huge save from Harrison-Hale denied Dunston from taking the lead two minutes later. However, 2 minutes into stoppage time, Dan Capewell got on the end of a Craig Baxter delivery to seal the win in dramatic style.

Although early in the season, the win now sees Dunston climb up to 10Th in the table and two points of the play-off positions.
