After the hurly burly of the League game between the two sides at the weekend it was an altogether calmer affair at Creasey Park last night. With the FA Trophy game at the weekend Manager Danny Gordon made seven changes in his starting line up. With Jordan Jenkins unavailable and Captain Ben Stevens still nursing an injury, Gordon also rested Lee Stobbs, Kieron Turner, Martin Griggs, Joe Fitzgerald and Jonny Montgomery. There was a debut for striker Alan Musoke & Gordon himself partnered Mark Lambert at the back with James Faulkner also returning to the starting line up for the first time in six weeks and Jack Brooker replacing Ash Jenkins in goal.
It's an excellent surface at Creasey Park and so both sides were able to get the ball down and play. It was Dunstable that started the better of the two sides with an early long range effort which flew straight at Brooker. Danny Murphy also had a free kick just outside the FC box which he fired over. As the half continued FC started to get more into the game and debutant Musoke & Dylan Cascoe were continually causing Dunstable problems down the right hand side of the pitch with their pace. On one of these raids a ball over the top from Victor Ocansey was chased down by Musoke and his cross eventually found James Faulkner who slotted home but the linesman had already flagged for offside. Another ball behind the defence from Ocansey this time found Cascoe but with only Dave Carty in the box the ball was again cleared to safety.
On thirty five minutes came the best chance of the half. FC were awarded a free kick on the right edge of the box and Ocansey's free kick found Danny Gordon in the area but his diving header was saved by the Dunstable keeper. The home side though were still dangerous and Jack Brooker had to turn a half volley from Roy Byron round the post as the half came to an end. There was still time though for another move down the right involving Georges Ehui and Dylan Cascoe which ended with Cascoe firing just wide.
Dunstable started brightly in the second half and jut a minute in Brandon Carney clipped a ball just over the Aylesbury bar. Carney was also starting to get more into the game and he flashed in another ball which evaded everybody in the Aylesbury box. The game appeared to be moving towards a penalty shoot out when with the clock running down, a through ball was latched onto by Jonny Montgomery, who was still some thirty yards out. Montgomery outpaced both defenders, took the ball round the stranded Dunstable keeper and slotted the ball home for an excellent victory.
