Daggers win 2-1 thanks to Montgomery's last-minute volley

FULL TIME Daggers are right back in the play-off picture now and into seventh - all roads point to Darlington next Saturday.

MONTGOMERY SCORES!!!

A stunner from the winger too, hes done it again. Keeper punched a long free kick and Monty left footed, volleys it into the top corner from the edge of the box, what a goal.

FOUR MINUTES TO BE ADDED

A great roar goes up!

Corner for Daggers, its now or never.

Its all Hereford now, youd think they needed the points!

Three mins to go, but you worry that Walsh's header was their chance.

Bulls had a four on two there and Doe booked for bringing down Constantine.

Dangerous fk for Hereford and Arber kicks it off the line.

AMAZING SAVE: Somehow Bartlett has kept out Walshs header, point blank, he saved it.

That was a truly stunning save.

Monty tries a shot but it goes nearer the corner flag, hopefully its not going to be that kind of end. 10 minutes.

77MINS: Walsh on for Nurse, you get the feeling this is Daggers final throw of the dice today.

Wonderful ball from Green there, Vincelot bust a gut to get there, but Bartlett was out to just beat him and get a clearance in.

Foul throw from Monty there - 15 minutes to go.

Shots winning against Lincoln now.

Montgomery crosses over the bar and gets an earful from Gain - 17 minutes to go for Daggers here.

Aldershot are level now, Daggers need a winner if they want to give themselves any chance next weekend.

Shades of the last home game there as Vincelot charges forward, but his left foot isnt as good as his right, and its well wide.

Now Chesterfield are losing, theres going to be plenty of changes here!

Scott off for Montgomery here - the hero of the Burton home match.

That goal puts Daggers down to 10th now.

Now the Bulls confidence is up as Manset blasts well over.

GOALFLASH - Marc Pugh has the Bulls level

Just as I was saying Bulls arent threatening, Green crosses for Pugh to slide home from a matter of yards.

Aldershot losing to Lincoln now, while Grimsby are ahead against Barnet. Top and the bottom hotting up this afternoon!

WHAT A BLOCK - Doe on Manset as the Bulls frontman was put through on goal. Daggers overloaded their left hand side and the centre half came out of nowhere as the Frenchman pulled the trigger.

55MINS: Much less has been seen from Herford as an attacking force this half and Daggers are looking the more dominant now.

The fans sense it too, as this period has been non-stop chanting, which is inspiring the players, especially shooting towards their followers too.

Attendance announced as 2,663 with 239 away fans.

Incisive cross from McCrory, Scott takes a touch and then volleys it well over the bar.

Daggers up to sixth now as Vale fall behind at Bournemouth.

Free header for Arber there, but he heads it down and over the bar.

Shrews are level with Morecambe now.

SO CLOSE - Vincelot drags a left-footer just off target.

Remember Daggers are seventh right now.

Players are out for the second half. How crucial is this going to be?

HALF TIME Well, without playing well, Daggers area ahead and that is all that matters come 4.45pm this afternoon.

Manset gets caught offside again but his shot is blocked by Roberts, but if they could watch their runs, it would have been interesting here.

Three minutes to be added on here - Nurse and Green have swapped flanks here too.

Marvellous intervention from Doe there as Hereford had two over and Daggers are inches away from 2-0 when Benson's mazy runs ends with Vincelot sliding his cross just wide of the mark.

Bury are now behind and with that goal, Daggers are up to seventh!

GOALFLASH: Paul Benson has Daggers ahead with a goal from nothing

They certainly have woken up as a long ball forward was picked up by Benson and with Hereford screaming for offside, the forward took a touch and although Bartlett got plenty behind his shot, it looped into the net.

Closest Daggers have come as the ball breaks in the area, Benson swivels and his shot flashes wide. Hopefully that will wake them up!

Driven cross by Green, easy for the keeper.

Manset is quite a handful upfront, holds the ball up tremendously well and has a number of clever tricks and turns too.

27MINS: To be honest, this is a desperately poor game at the moment. Hereford are playing all the football and Daggers cant get down the wings or through the middle. The hosts are quite thankful that Bulls striker Craig King doesnt get the offside trap just yet.

Free kick in a dangerous position for Daggers, but McCrory rather wastes it, sending his shot well over the bar.

Doe and Mansett collide in a challenge and both need treatment, the Daggers centre half has certainly been in the wars today and its not even half time!

Still no change to the score or performance level, you wouldnt know the magnitude of this game from the opening 21 minutes.

Morecambe 2-0 up now but Northampton losing to Bradford. As it lies, Daggers are 10th.

15MINS: Its still all square here but Hereford are in the ascendancy and looking dangerous. Whether the the occasion is getting to the hosts I dont know, but they look strangely quiet out there.

Mansett is causing problems all the time and just heads off target there, while Doe apepars to have an injury after sliding in early in the game. Thats one to keep an eye on.

Morecambe winning at Shrews in their match.

Now Mansett escapes and shoots across goal - the hosts need to get their tempo going and soon.

Benson is playing with a mask too, looks like Zorro out there today!

Almost a goal for Hereford with their first attack, but Roberts is switched on to block from Pugh who was left all alone in the penalty area.

Daggers havent quite settled yet.

Here we go then, Daggers kicking off, a vital 90 minutes ahead!

Excellent atmosphere bubbling away, lets hope we're in for some fireworks today.

Early thoughts on the crowd are that it looks like a decent amount in the away end which is housing home fans today, while the visitors have brought a vociferous contingent determined to enjoy their last day out.
