The first chance of the game fell to the home side in the 7th minute but they were unable to capitalise on a slip by Rickie Hayles. After that there was little action to keep spectators entertained until Dulwich took the lead in the 27th Minute. A free kick ob the Dulwich right was floated into the penalty area where Nathan Green headed down for Anthony Acheampong to smash home from close range.

Almost immediately from the restart Corinthian-Casuals could have equalised but Matt Reece dragged his effort just wide. The same player then had a glorious chance to level the scores in the 29th minute. Seizing on a mix up between Quade Taylor & Nathan Green he strode into the box where he was fouled by Rickie Hayles. Reece then stepped up but saw his penalty saved by Preston Edwards diving to his right.

Dulwich then almost added a second in the 31 st minute as an Omar Koroma saw an effort saved by Bracken. However from the resulting corner the ball dropped to Acheampong who fired home the second goal.

A third goal came in the 41st minute when Muhammadu Faal turned and left his marker in his wake before delivering a low cross that Omar Koroma converted at the near post

Half Time 0-3

Corinthian-Casuals almost reduced the arrears early in the second half but the luckless Reece saw his effort come back off the post. The same player also saw Edwards foil him with a fine low save, whilst John Uzun curled a free kick narrowly wide.

With little being offered in attack, Dulwich were indebted to Edwards for some fine saves during the second half and could also have added a fourth when Dumaka was denied by Bracken.

However, the home side got their just reward with almost the last kick of the game when another Uzun free kick this time beat the despairing dive of Preston Edwards and went in via the post.

Full Time 1-3
