Scunthorpe United 3-2 Dorking Wanderers

  • Published

Scunthorpe climbed off the foot of the table after mounting a second-half comeback to defeat Dorking.

It looked set to be another miserable afternoon for the Iron when the visitors opened up a 2-0 lead at half-time.

Ryan Seager netted the opener in the 11th minute before setting up Niall McManus 12 minutes before the break.

Scunthorpe's fightback began six minutes after the break, with Caolan Lavery netting on his debut.

The hosts then missed a penalty after Sami El-Abd handled the ball, Joe Nuttall hitting the outside of the post.

But Scunthorpe kept pressing and Jacob Butterfield equalised in the 69th minute with a fine 25-yard strike and clinched all three points with six minutes left when Lavery crossed for George Taft to head the winner.
