Two goals from Tom Murphy earned Dover a 2-0 win at Kidderminster in Vanarama Conference.

Dover started well with Stefan Payne firing a shot straight at the keeper, before taking the lead a minute later through Tom Murphy.

Murphy went through one-on-one, lobbed the ball over the keeper before tapping home to give the Whites a seventh-minute lead.

There was always a chance that one goal might be enough given that Kidderminster had only scored three goals in their previous 10 games, and as the first half wore on, the home side became frustrated with Dover restricting them to half chances only, with Andrew Rafferty only making a couple of routine saves.

At the other end, Payne saw a shot comfortably saved after great work from Ricky Modeste and Nicky Deverdics had an effort blocked in the six-yard box following a corner.

Goalscorer Murphy went closest to doubling the lead just before the break, seeing his shot saved after skipping past a defender.

Sean Raggett cleared an effort off the line at the start of the second half, but that was as close as the home side came, as Dover took control.

Payne shot wide after clever play by Deverdics, and shot straight at the keeper after Raggett battled to win the ball.

Murphy then made the points safe with a stunning goal, turning past a defender before chipping the keeper.
