The strikeforce of Rees Frost and Viran Amin helped, in part, to secure Dragon's place in the second round of this cup competition.

Picking up from a Jeff Hoy pass, newcomer Amin beat two defenders before coolly slotting past the keeper, to notch Dragon's first goal.

Man-of-the-match Rees Frost delivered Dragon's second goal from just inside the area, following a good link-up with Steve Horsfield.

William Morris's reply was to pump the ball upfield toward their strikers. However, their efforts were intercepted by Dragon's sturdy defenders Anthony Slavin and Darren Shirwin.

Dragon's third strike was a Frost penalty after midfielder Imran Ali had been brought down in the area.

Just before the break, William Morris grabbed a goal thanks to a botched goalmouth clearance.

The second half saw William Morris looking dangerous but their threat was countered by a fourth Dragon goal. This was a cracking effort fired through a packed area by Horsfield.

Rees Frost very nearly made it 5-1 but his free kick slapped William Morris's crossbar.

Delighted Dragon boss Mark Peach said after the game: "Our passing and running were excellent, and our defence was solid."
