DORCHESTER Town’s Olaf Koszela was hailed as “brave” by assistant boss James Wood after the striker’s 90th-minute goal gave the Magpies victory over Wimborne in the FA Cup.
With the initial tie locked at 0-0, the sides’ first qualifying round replay also looked set for a stalemate – plus extra-time and beyond – until Koszela’s quality intervention.
Picking up a lay-off from Alfie Stanley, Koszela buried a superb sidefooted strike from 18 yards to give Dorchester a victory they probably should have secured on Saturday.

Koszela now has three goals in four games and the Torquay loanee attracted praise from Wood for yet another outstanding display in Dorchester colours.
Wood told Echosport: “I thought he was good, he never stops working and he’s brave.
“Regardless of whether he misses chances, or doesn’t get in the right positions, he will keep going and keep going. I think that was a goal worthy of winning any game.”
