Farnham Town 1-2 Kingstonian
DEAN LODGES HIS CASE

Second half goals from Richard Taylor and Dean Lodge secured a two-one win for Kingstonian away at Farnham Town in a somewhat entertaining game.

The hosts took an early lead in the fifth minute when Steve Symes was dispossessed for Alan Green to strike past Stephen Windegard. Tony Reid had K's best chance of the half just a minute later, but was denied by a flying save by Glenn Lynch.

Following a steady first half in which Scott Smith and James Rose made their first outings of the summer, both sides came out with attacking intent in the second period.

With ten minutes gone in the half, Dean Lodge crossed from the right for Richard Taylor to deftly flick across goal for the equaliser. Minutes late, K's took the lead when Tommy Moorhouse passed to Lodge who rounded to goalkeeper to score a fine goal.

The Kingstonian substitutes came close to adding further goals in the closing stages. Husani Thomas' floated shot clipped the crossbar, Danny Smart saw a header cleared off the line, Wes Harrison broke free before striking just over and Pablo Jenkins shaved the post with a low strike.
