The Hamlet made it six points from the opening two games with a hard fought win over Wealdstone.

For the Dulwich line up visit here.

Despite a number of new injuries to add to those already sidelined, The Hamlet produced a stubborn performance to record a win in their first home game of the season, with a lone goal from Richard Orlu.

However, it was Wealdstone who had the better of the early exchanges with slick passing that seemed to leave them with an extra man getting forward. Richard Orlu got across to cover as Lafayette threatened in the 4th minute and Quade Taylor produced another goal saving block in the 7th minute.

Lafayette then saw his effort kept out by a fine save by Ashley Maynard-Brewer as he flew to his right before Dulwich finally put together an attack that saw Oxborough pluck Jeffrey Monakana's cross out of the air.

Oxborough produced a fine save to thwart Dipo Akinyemi as he was released by a fine through pass from Nyren Clunis but Dulwich took the lead immediately afterwards. The corner was delivered into the box and Richard Orlu slammed the ball home from point blank range.

Wealdstone could well have been reduced to ten men in the 25th minute when Connor Smith scythed down Kieran Monlouis.

Ryan Case came close to putting through his own goal before Oxborough was again called into action, pushing out a cross from Dipo Akinyemi and Richard Orlu almost scored again as he met a Jeffrey Monakana free kick at the back post.

Lafayette again saw two efforts blocked by Quade Taylor before Nick Arnold rifled an effort wide from distance.

However, despite continuing to push forward, Wealdstone could not fashion any further chances before the break.

Half Time 1-0

The second half saw a tactical switch by The Hamlet, with Yannis Ambroisine replacing Dipo Akinyemi and Quade Taylor patrolling the space in front of the defence. This negated the threat from the visitors until just past the hour, when Maynard-Brewer spilled a corner. However, Danny Mills was on hand to clear.

Dulwich then forced a good save from Oxborough as Jeffrey Monakan cut in from the left and tried to beat him low inside his near post before Ryan Case had to be alert to clear a dangerous attack.

The game went from end to end as both sides continued to attack and Lewis fired inches wide for Wealdstone, whilst Case headed over for The Hamlet.

Another block by Quade Taylor with six minutes left preserved Dulwich's advantage after Maynard-Brewer had parried an effort, but it was Dulwich who then wasted two chances to put the result beyond doubt. Substitute Lewis White broke clear but shot at Oxborough when he should have squared it to onrushing colleagues. He then fired too high when well placed.

However, Dulwich were able to manage the last few minutes and secure a second win.

Final Score 1-0
