Lloyd Harrington’s superb long-range strike made it six wins in eight games for Dover Athletic against 10-man Bromley at Crabble on Tuesday night.

Daryl McMahon returned to the Whites starting XI for the Kent derby, with Barry Cogan unavailable, but chances were at a premium at both ends in a quiet first-half.

However the game sprang to life after the turnaround and 19-year-old left-back Harrington (pictured) stole the points with his first senior goal shortly after the hour, a curling and dipping long-range effort which beat keeper Joe Welch and found the corner.

Welch received a red card 11 minutes from time after he flew out of the box but brought down Moses Ademola, denying a clear goalscoring opportunity.

The subsequent free-kick came to nothing but Dover held on for the points and are third, three points clear of fourth-placed Chelmsford City.

Whites are five points behind second-placed Salisbury City and 11 points adrift of leaders Welling United, with a game in hand on both.
