BROMLEY staged an impressive second half recovery to return from Dorchester with maximum points in the Blue Square South.

They came back from a 2-0 half-time deficit to win 3-2 thanks to three goals in 10 second half minutes.

Bromley fell behind on 14 minutes when their former player Jones Awuah scored from close range.

The home side added a second in the 27th minute when Jamie Gleeson netted from a well-worked 25-yard free-kick.

Bromley boss Mark Goldberg made a couple of changes at half-time bringing on Garath McCleary and Nic McDonnell.

But it wasn't until 67 minutes that they pulled a goal back when McDonnell headed in from a Barry Moore corner.

There were chances at both ends in the final 20 minutes and Bromley equalised with a quarter of an hour to go when Danny Hockton finished calmly by lifting the ball over the keeper as he dived at his feet.

McCleary completed a memorable fightback for Bromley on 77 minutes when ran at the home defence before drilling home a low shot from 25 yards.

Bromley keeper Andy Walker then made a fantastic save from Awuah to keep his side in front, before McDonnell hit the post at other end.
