Adam Birchall was once again Dover's hero as his 10th and 11th goals in the FA Cup secured a 2-0 home win over Aldershot.
The 25-year-old striker, who grabbed the opener in the 2-0 win at Gillingham in the first round, was at it again as he opened the scoring in Saturday's second-round tie at The Crabble and then grabbed a late penalty for the victory. The Whites thought they had taken the lead after nine minutes but Olly Schulz's header from Harry Baker's free-kick was ruled offside. Wade Small had the visitors' best chances in the opening 45 minutes - the best one in the opening 60 seconds - and the veteran striker should have done better. He was made to pay 10 minutes after the restart when Birchall picked the ball up outside the area and coolly found the bottom corner of Jamie Young's net. And he made sure Dover's name was in the hat for the third round when he slotted a penalty following Danny Hylton's handball to send the Crabble Ground faithful delirious.
