A stoppage time strike from Sammy Moore pinched all three points for Dover against Bromley.

The midfielder pounced on a rebound from a free kick to drill the ball into the back of the net and send The Crabble crowd home delighted.

Andy Hessenthaler's side were good value for their win, having dominated for long periods in both halves. Shaun Welford came close to opening the score on three occasions, firstly Bromley keeper Foderingham tipped over a header, the ball was headed off the line by the Bromley defence and a shot on the turn was dragged wide in the space of 15 minutes.

Warren McBean came closest to scoring for the visitors before the break, but was unable to get his shot away.

Dover continued to press forward, but had to be patient as Bromley went close once more late on through Marcus Cassius. Ross Flitney showed smart reactions to parry at the feet of the on-rushing attackers.

A penalty appeal on Sammy Moore was turned down with just a minute to go, but Shaun Welford was barged over by the corner flag in stoppage time.

Following half a clearence by the Bromley defence, Moore latched on to the loose ball to grab the win.

Dover move back into the play-off places to fourth, while Bromley's promotion ambitions look all but over in thirteenth.
