Shepshed Dynamo scored six goals for the second consecutive Saturday. This time in the Midland Football League away at Stourport Swifts.

The result after a narrow 1-0 defeat at Lye Town in midweek moved Dynamo back to third in the league table ahead of Next Saturdays FA Cup tie against two leagues above side Nantwich Town at The Dovecote Stadium.

Shepshed were always in control of the game and after they had doubled their lead early in the second half never looked in danger of losing.

Like a majority of the games so far this season Shepshed were straight into the action. Shay Brennan pulling the ball back to Liam Hurst but his effort was wide in the first minute. A minute later and Dominic Richards did well to tip over Liam Reads shot.

Shepshed continued to press Liam Hurst fouled just outside of the penalty area. Hursts free kick was blocked by Jim Hanson and cleared by Matt Fulloway.

Stourports first chance of the game came on thirteen minutes but didn't trouble Denham Hinds as Drew Canavans effort went wide.

Dynamos early pressure paid off on eighteen minutes Hurst cross was met by the head of Michael Reeve who headed back across goal beating Richards the ball hitting the inside of the right hand post and what seemed like an age went across the goal line and in off the foot of the left hand post.

Niall Prenderville then put Brennan through on twenty three minutes but Richards was alert to clear the danger.

Swifts best chance of the half came on twenty seven minutes after a foul by Prenderville, Canavans free kick just went over the crossbar.

Shepshed controlled the remainder of the half but without adding to their tally. Jake Betts and Adam Hohn were unlucky with headers on thirty minutes and Richards saved from Read on thirty eight minutes.

Reeves then pulled the ball back to Hurst but his effort was dragged wide on forty minutes as Dynamo took just the solitary goal into the break.

Shepshed continued to dominate the game in the second half Read firing over on forty eight minutes, Richards saving from Brennan on fifty one minutes and Josh Hill dragging the ball wide shortly afterwards.

Dynamo doubled their lead on fifty five minutes Brennan latching onto Reeves flick on and coolly rounding Richards to slot into the Swifts goal.

Two minutes later it was Shepsheds third and Brennans second of the game. Brennan again picking his spot as he went round Richards again.

Stourport looked for a foothold in to the game but Aaron Lloyd was off target on fifty nine minutes and sixty seven minutes and Canavans shot was saved by Hinds on sixty six minutes.

Shepsheds captain Betts made it four on seventy five minutes heading home from a corner and three minutes later after only being on the field for one minute Luke Richards headed in Dynamos fifth.

Shepshed were buoyant and looking for further goals. Alex Troke replacing Brennan had an effort blocked on eight two minutes.

The sixth goal came on eighty three minutes a low drive from Hurst through a crowd of players beating Richards from twenty five yards.

Troke then had a further effort blocked from Karl Whymarks corner on eighty five minutes.

Their could have been further goals with Reads long distance shot saved by Richards on eighty seven minutes, Richards again saving from Troke on eighty nine minutes and as the game went into injury time there were further efforts from Troke, Whymark, Reeve and Richards.

A dominant and all round perfect performance from Shepshed who now have no game in midweek with Nantwich Town the visitors to The Dovecote Stadium on Saturday in the 2nd Qualifying Round of the FA Cup.
