Welling United triumphed over Weymouth, earning essential points in their fight against relegation in the National League South
Dylan Berry, a goalkeeper just picked up from Ebbsfleet United, jumped right into the action. He replaced Rhys Lovett, who got hurt in the last match. Welling also made a change in the lineup, bringing in Theo Alexandrou to boost their attack.
The game kicked off with excitement. Just seven minutes in, Riccardo Di Trolio scored with a powerful header from a free-kick. Welling was off to a great start! They kept pushing, with some close calls, but Weymouth’s keeper, Will Buse, was on his game.
Weymouth’s manager had a chat with his players at halftime, and they came back looking more fired up. But Welling held strong. After a bit of back and forth, Zain Walker, who came on for Alexandrou, scored the second goal, putting Welling in a solid position.
Weymouth did manage to get one back late in the game, but it wasn’t enough. Welling held on through six minutes of stoppage time, securing a vital win that lifted them up the league table. What a night for the Wings!
