The trend of the past two seasons seems to have been carried into a third as Diss again found goal scoring easy away from home – their start this season is two away wins from two games with a goal tally of 8-0. Jordan Rocastle scored four of the five second half goals after the teams went in level at the break at 0-0. Both sides hit the bar in the early stages – Anton Clarke for Whitton and Jordan Rocastle for Diss – but there were no clear cut chances in a half where the wind seemed to be the real winner. Diss opened the scoring in the 50th minute when Rocastle took advantage of hesitancy in the home defence where a long bouncing ball was not dealt with by defenders or goalkeeper and Rocastle raced on to shoot in from an acute angle. Two minutes later (Rocastle) was again quickest to react and scored although defender Alan Mills got the last touch. Two became three as The Tangerines scored a third goal inside five minutes when Stuart Garner crossed from the left for Dan Wynne to lay the ball back for Luke Catchpole to shoot home. Wynne was again the provider as Rocastle fired in to complete his hat-trick in the 82nd minute. Just before the end Rocastle made it 5-0 with his 4th goal of the afternoon. This time he needed no help from others as he cut in from the right and having beaten two defenders shot in past Darren Moyes to send the travelling Diss fans home happy and hopeful that they can build upon this win against Team Bury at Brewers Green Lane on Tuesday evening. |
