AFC Telford United were thrashed by five-star Stourbridge on a miserable evening at the SEAH Stadium that ended 5-1 to the visitors.
Remi Walker’s second half goal was a brief bright spark on an evening that started badly and finished off even worse for Kevin Wilkin’s side.
Sloppy errors in possession meant the hosts were unable to build a sustained period of pressure as they struggled to get to grips with Stourbridge’s fluid 4-2-3-1 system. Jimmy Armson was robbed of possession by lively midfielder Alex Bradley, who curled a delightful effort past Brandon Hall from 20 yards.
Walker and Dinanga’s combination play proved threatening, and with 52 minutes on the clock the pair linked up to pull one back for The Bucks. Good chances soon fell to Armson and Sam Whittall, but neither could keep their close-range efforts down.
