The victory transformed the team’s goal difference from a three-goal negative total of 51-54, before the game, to a much better-looking 57-56 at the final whistle.

Ethan Galbraith also struck, as did Omari Forsan on his U23 debut.

Forson marked his full debut with a confident finish after the 16-year-old was played through by Shoretire.
