Weymouth Football Club’s Senior men’s team go into the FA Trophy 3rd round draw following their 4 4 result at the Crabbe Stadium on Saturday against Dover Athletic.
With the game tied the result was decided on penalties, the Terras out scoring their hosts by 4 penalties to 1 with on loan Chelsea custodian Jared Thompson making 2 spec
ular penalty saves to secure Weymouth’s place in the hat for Monday’s draw.
In normal time striker Ezio Touray netted twice for the Terras with Brandon Goodship and skipper Tom Bearwish both adding a goal each.
Our Man at the Match said: “You can pick our Man of the Match between Touray for scoring twice, Thompson for saving 2 penalties or the whole team for coming back from a 2-goal deficit”. Then he added tongue very much in cheek: “I can see Wembly Stadium in front of me already”.
