Under 23s win at Durham
By Ray Simpson
Fourth league win of the season
Darlington Under 23s are in fifth place in the Wearside League First Division after a good 2-0 win at Durham City on Saturday.
After a goalless first half, Darlington came out stronger after the break and took control of the game. Dom Stacey opened the scoring on the hour mark with a well-taken finish before Owen Harvey doubled the lead just five minutes later, securing the win.
It was a confident and composed display across the pitch, with the defence standing firm and the midfield dictating play throughout. A special mention goes to Dom Stacey, who was named Man of the Match after an excellent 90 minutes — combining defensive work, attacking intent, and a crucial goal to cap off a standout performance.
Here's the league table:
