The Ryman Premier League side showed their qualities and dominated the whole encounter where their goalkeeper wasn't threatened with a real shot on goal.

Dulwich started on top as Dixon's shot fixed past the post from six yards out, which was then followed minutes later by a fine save from a Robertson effort.

The Millers were given a free kick on the edge of the area after Petrit Elbi was fouled. Joe Pearman stepped up and curled it over the bar. That really was our best and only chance of the match.

On the 30 minute mark the visitors took the lead. The ball was slipped in down the left hand side to Clunis who smashed it home. Aveley 0-1 Dulwich.

Minutes later Dulwich did double their lead, a cross into the box was flicked on from near to far post where it was met by Clunis again but this time he was adjudged to be offside.

Dulwich soon came again and it was their centre half who ran from the halfway line through the defence to almost score a quite brilliant goal, he attempted to then chip the goalkeeper but Jack just managed to claw the ball to safety.

Half Time- Aveley 0-1 Dulwich Hamlet

The second half was much like the first, dominated by the visitors.

In the 55th minute Dulwich doubled their lead. A pinpoint cross was put into the box from Campbell which was perfect for Robertson to nod home. Junior Baker managed to get in front of his man to try and defend the cross but could only divert the ball into his own goal. Aveley 0-2 Dulwich.

Both sides started to make changes, Weemes and Peagram both came on to try and make an impact to the team. Whereas for Dulwich ex Southend United and Dagenham & Redbridge player Damien Scannell came on.

Scannell's impact was instantaneous. He took on the Millers right hand side, crossed it into the back post where Erskine couldn't miss with 20 minutes left. Aveley 0-3 Dulwich.

The Millers got close to making the chances near the end of the game but just couldn't produce that final ball to set up the chances to score and test the Dulwich keeper.

The scoreline was rounded off, a fine save from our keeper led to a corner for the visitors. It was whipped in to the six yard box where Waldren header was too hot to handle for our keeper and ended up in the back of the net. Aveley 0-4 Dulwich Hamlet.

Full Time- Aveley FC 0-4 Dulwich Hamlet FC.
