Dartford edged past Slough thanks to an early goal on Tuesday night. Keiran Murtagh's header was the difference between the sides at Princes Park as Darts remain 11 points behind leaders Ebbsfleet in National League South.

Dartford made four changes from the team that drew 1-1 at Braintree on Saturday. Alex Wall was back from suspension, Murtagh and Malachi Napa also started along with right-back Isaac Ogundea.

It was Ogundea who made an immediate impact, winning an early free-kick down the right wing as he was finally fouled by Tyrese Owen in the eyes of the assistant referee.

Luke Coulson’s free-kick found the Slough defence playing musical statues and Murtagh headed in from close range to give Dartford a fourth-minute lead.
