Dartford came from a goal down at half-time to take all three points in their opening day game against Horsham in the Ryman League Premier Division on Saturday.

There were 968 fans at Princes Park for the start of the season - but they were silenced on 31 minutes when Russel Eldridge put the visitors in front with a free-kick.

But three goals in 10 second half minutes turned the game on its head and secured the points for Tony Burman's men.

The hosts were level 11 minutes after the break when Elliot Bradbrook got on the end of Lee Burns's low ball into the box and slid home under keeper Rob Tolfrey.

They went in front in the 63rd minute when Adam Flanagan sent Tolfrey the wrong way from the penalty spot after Bradbrook had been brought down by Anthony Acheampong.

And Bradbrook gave the Darts a two-goal cushion on 66 minutes when he turned in Adam Burchell's cross.

Pat Harding pulled one back for Horsham at the death but it was too late for a comeback.
