Woking 6-1 Dover Athletic

Scott Rendell
Rendell is now the Conference's top-scorer with six goals

Woking's Scott Rendell scored four as they thrashed newly-promoted Dover.

Giuseppe Sole headed home a corner early on and made it 2-0 when he scored a second from close range.

Rendell netted his first and his team's third before Stefan Payne pulled a goal back for Dover with a deflected strike.

The Woking striker scored his second after the restart and completed his hat-trick with a penalty, before sliding in to net his fourth and complete Dover's misery.

Woking boss Garry Hill told BBC Surrey:

"It's a tremendous result whoever you play in the Conference. It's a very, very good result.

"I thought the game was won in the first 20 minutes and we did what we should've done against Welling away on Saturday. We've blown them away - I think some of the football and the quality we played going forward.

"And there is still room for improvement. We have still got to get one or two a bit fitter and sharper but you know I wanted 10 points from 15 at the start of the season and we've got nine, so I can't be too hard but it's solid start."
