Kwame Thomas netted a late winner as Aldershot beat 10-man Dagenham 3-2 at home in the National League.

Dagenham made a flying start with Charley Kendall firing them ahead inside four minutes with a shot into the bottom corner.

Aldershot levelled in the 22nd minute with Cian Harries converting from the penalty spot after Daggers goalkeeper Elliot Justham fouled Tyler Frost.

The visitors were reduced to 10 men in first-half stoppage time after Sam Ling was shown the red card for a foul on Josh Stokes, who put Aldershot in front four minutes after the break.

Recent signing Freddie Sears equalised for Dagenham in the 66th minute but Thomas headed in Ollie Harfield’s cross two minutes from time to snatch victory for Aldershot.
