[ 8 Dec 22 ] GILLS v Dagenham & Red Match Thread (FAC R2R)
Posted: Wed Dec 07, 2022 8:09 pm - This is the 9th meeting between the Gills and Dagenham & Redbridge. There has only been 1 draw (the original fixture from last month) and the Gills are unbeaten in the last 3 meetings.
- The Gills draw at Dagenham to set up this replay ended a run of 4 straight wins for the visitors. Dagenham then lost the next match to Torquay, their first defeat in 7 games. In all competitions, they have won their last 2 away from home.
- Against all opposition, the Gills won 15 and lost 8 of their 36 home FA Cup games in Round 2. They lost at home to Exeter in 2020/1 when last in Round 2 and since 2000 have won 2 of the 5 matches played at home in the round.
- In the Football League eras, the Gills have suffered 2 defeats in Round 2 to non-league opposition with both coming in home games at Priestfield. Those defeats were against Maidstone in 1980/1 and Aldershot Town in 1930/1.
(19:15) Kick Off [ 4 - 2 - 3 - 1 ]
The visitors start with former-Gills Dean Rance, Myles Weston and Josh Hare in their side.
(19.17) An awful back-pass has no pace and pulls Turner out of his goal. With the goal gaping, the visitors can only tap an effort which rolls slowly across goal and wide.
(19.19) A Gills corner runs loose and a shot from the Gills just 2 yards from goal is blocked on the line.
(19.24) Walker finds himself in a good space midway inside the penalty area. He turns and shoots but the ball deflects just wide for a corner.
(19.30) GOAL! Gillingham 0-1 Dagenham & Redbridge: Robinson
(19.41) GOAL! Gillingham 1-1 Dagenham & Redbridge: Baggott
(19.49) The Gills surge forward and Adelakun cuts the ball back away from goal. It goes behind all Gills attackers and Dagenham defenders, falls to Tutonda on his wrong foot and blazes over.
(20.01) A very strong long-range effort from Dean Rance bounces just before Turner who has to be very careful to gather safely.
(20.03) Myles Weston sends in a great cross which is chested behind narrowly by the Gills for a corner.
(20.03) Half time 1-1
(20.20) The second half kicks off.
(20.45) Lewis Walker receives a through ball, takes it into the box and fires passed the 'keeper but the offside flag goes up.
(20.49) A great run and pass from Adelakun finds Kashket 5 yards from goal and, with the goal at his mercy, he puts it wide.
(20.50) Walker fires at goal from the left side of the box. Kashket doesn't gamble and any touch would make it 2-1. It takes a deflection and goes out for a corner.
(20.50) GOAL! Gillingham 2-1 Dagenham & Redbridge: Ehmer
(20.53) Red Card! Phipps is sent off for the visitors for a horrible studs on knee challenge on Lewis Walker.
(20.58) GOAL! Gillingham 2-2 Dagenham & Redbridge: Saunders
(21.03) Adelakun fires in a cross towards the centre of the box. It evades everyone and goes for a throw.
(21.09) GOAL! Gillingham 3-2 Dagenham & Redbridge: Adelakun
(21.11) FULL TIME 3-2
