MATCH REPORT: Gloucester City 3-3 Dorchester Town

The away side started the game strongly, striking the post inside 90 seconds to leave City under no illusions of how difficult the task would be.


Only a couple of minutes later and Dorchester went one better with Wesley Fogden tapping home on the rebound.


Not to be dampened, City fought back well, looking particularly strong from corners in the opening exchanges.


However it was Dorchester who doubled their advantage with a Gwengwe free kick arrowing into the top right corner.


Once again City hit back well with Jemmett-Hutson drawing a good save from Harrison Lee.


A return to a familiar corner routine saw Harry Pinchard go inches away from halving the deficit a few minutes before the break but Dorchester held onto their advantage.


The introduction of Brandon Smalley and Liam Cross shortly after the break sparked new life into City and they were rewarded in the 56th minute when Elis Watts got on the end of a rebound to pull one back.


However it was the Magpies who got the fourth goal of the game from another free kick, this time Koszela poking into the net.


Not to be disheartened, City hit back once more, Liam Cross winning a penalty which Joe Hanks converted.


Just when it looked like City were going to fall to a third league defeat at home but Hanks did what he does and nodded home to give City a well deserved share of the spoils in the 97th minute.
