National League

Dagenham & Redbridge 0 BARNET 1

Darren Currie got off to the perfect start as Bees new Head Coach thanks to Shaq Coulthirst’s fifth goal of the season. Barnet fielding two defensive midfield players dominated the early exchanges taking the lead after 34 minutes when Coulthirst bundled the ball over the line after the Daggers had blocked Craig Robson’s header from Medy Elito’s corner. The introduction of Lamar Reynolds at half time led to the home side enjoying their best period of the match. Marc Cousins who’d blocked Balanta’s effort in the first half denying Reynolds with an excellent sliding challenge on the edge of the area. The arrival of Simeon Akinola after 59 minutes produced a big cheer from the 301 Bees fans and the substitute almost scored curling a right foot shot over the top. Substitute Shamir Mullins missed the Daggers best chance of drawing level heading wide with only Cousins to beat.
