Welling United battled back from a goal down at the break to move into the top five in Blue Square Bet South at Park View Road on Saturday.

James Hawes gave the visitors the lead just two minutes before the break against run of play with a low drive from the edge of the box

Femi Omogbehin levelled just four minutes after the restart with a header from an inswinging Jamie Day corner and Luis Cumbers turned the game on its head in the 72nd minute, latching onto a Graeme Anrdrews ball over the top, lobbing the keeper and tucking in the ball on the other side.

Jack Parkinson (pictured) was sent-off for retaliating to a nasty chalenge mid-way through the second half, Wood's Lee Allinson also saw red after collecting a second yellow for the tackle.

An own goal five minutes from time from Ryan Moran sealed the points for the Wings.

Meanwhile leaders Bromley maintained their 100 per cent record with a 2-0 win at Maidenhead.

After a goalless first half Warren McBean put the visitors ahead shortly before the hour mark and Jon Scarborough made it 2-0 12 minutes from time to ensure Bromley recorded their seventh win of the new season.
