Dorking Wanderers came from a goal down to earn their first win of the National League season with a victory over Southend United.
The Shrimpers opened the scoring in the third minute when Harry Cardwell tucked the ball home from close range following a counter-attack from the away side.
The hosts levelled things up just before the half-time break when Ryan Seager took advantage of some loose possession at the back and slotted in to make it 1-1.
Dorking turned the game around with 11 minutes to go as the ball was put back across goal, with Jason Prior on hand to head home and put them in front.
Southend pushed in search for an equaliser and some late pressure ended with Jack Wood's effort going straight to Harrison Male.
