NORTHWICH Victoria have sealed their first win under new co-managers Lee Duckworth and Luke Goddard.
Their first success in nine games came at Dudley Town on Tuesday night in a Midland League Premier Division game that was restaged after being abandoned first time around due to an injury to striker Joe Duckworth.
Vics came from a goal behind to win 3-2, with substitute Kieron Frost netting the decider in the 90th minute.
Sam Deering scored Vics’ two other goals in a four-minute spell either side of the interval.
New season-remaining loan signings from Shrewsbury Town, goalkeeper Zac Prior and defender Karsten Cairns, made their debuts alongside the returning Malakai McKenzie.
