Dominic Poleon took his tally for a memorable season to 34 after scoring four times to sink 10-man Dulwich on Saturday. The Ebbsfleet striker fired his side 18 points clear at the top of National League South with second-placed Dartford not in action after their trip to Concord was postponed due to a waterlogged pitch.
It took Poleon just three minutes to make his mark. Greg Cundle, who was back to his best in the first half, crossed from the left and Poleon had the freedom of the penalty area to slam home past keeper Charlie Grainger.
The lead should have been doubled immediately but Shaq Coulthirst – one of four changes from the team that drew at Tonbridge last weekend – overhit a simple pass to send Cundle clean through.
Dulwich were back on level terms after just six minutes, George Porter pulling the ball back for Joe Felix to confidently place home.
