Dover Athletic 1-3 FC Halifax Town
- Published
Billy Waters scored twice as Halifax heaped more woe on National League bottom club Dover by claiming a 3-1 win at The Crabble.
Waters slid home an eighth-minute opener raising hopes among Shaymen fans of another goal-fest after their stunning 7-4 victory over Maidenhead last week.
But Dover, still searching for their first win of the season, responded with resolve and Travis Gregory came closest to grabbing a deserved equaliser.
The home side's bright play was finally rewarded in the 75th minute when Ben Williamson equalised with a low shot through a crowded box.
But Halifax responded with Kieran Green heading home from a corner moments later, before Waters sealed the win with his 12th goal of the season two minutes from time.
