Wotton hails 'brilliant' Torquay after Dorking win

Lyrak Hasani's goal was his first for Torquay since his summer move to the club

Torquay United moved into the top three of National League South after a 1-0 win over Dorking Wanderers at Plainmoor.

Lirak Hasani's goal 10 minutes after the break was enough for the Gulls as his long-range header nestled in the top corner.

The win over a side relegated from the National League last season was Torquay's third in four matches this campaign.

"The first clean sheet of the season is great, I love a 1-0 win," manager Paul Wotton told BBC Radio Devon.

"It took a little bit of time for us to get to grips with the way they play, they're really expansive with their wing-backs and they play a certain way and credit to them for that.

"We thought the last 15 minutes of the first half we grew into it.

"We felt if we raised our intensity a little bit we'd get on top and I thought the first 20-25 minutes of the second half we were exceptional.

"We were front-footed, we were breaking them down well, we scored our goal - it was a great strike from Lyrak - we had a couple of other chances and I thought we were brilliant."
