Scorpions looked like they would run away with the game but Victoria Dock scored two brilliant goals to pull themselves back into the game.

Victoria Dock pressed hard for an equaliser but the defence of Harvie Retallic, Kasim Chaudhary, Harvey Gibbons and Ty Tulley stood firm but Josh Mitchell still had to make two fine saves to keep them at bay.

Scorpions began to settle again and take control when Milner fired in his second after a great ball from Joel Carpenter.

Scorpions tightened their grip further when they were awarded a penalty which Owen Tibbett dispatched with style for the fifth.

Victoria Dock refused to give up and used good strength to challenge the Bridlington side and soon scored a third.
