Dragon produced some great passing and moving football to ease past Brian's Bungalows.

Their opening goal came from the penalty spot when Rees Frost converted the spot kick, following a foul on striker Kiran Amin.

Left-back Steve Horsfield got Dragon's second, when Frost's long-range shot came off Brian's Bungalows' crossbar, and Horsfield headed home.

The Bungalows had trouble keeping up with Dragon's fast play and midfielder Imran Ali made it 3-0 when he finished off a three-man move, involving strikers Kiran Amin and Kojo.

Amin got onto the scoresheet himself with a tap-in, following a Frost cross into the Bungalows' area.

The second half started well for Bungalows, when they got a penalty after a striker was brought down by Anthony Slavin.

But any comeback was snuffed out when Horsfield got his second with a cracking shot from Rees Frost's corner.

Defenders Jeff Hoy and Imran Ali both went close with shots. The final goal was the best of the game, when Kiran Amin ran with the ball past four players, before shooting from the edge of the area.

Manager Mark Peach said: "We were solid at the back, and quick and skilful going forward. I've got no complaints."
