Logan Dobbs scored his first senior league goal as Gillingham secured back-to-back victories following a 2-0 win over Tranmere at Priestfield.<\/p>\n
The defender found space inside the box on 68 minutes and headed home a fine cross from Ronan Hale, who got on the scoresheet himself shortly afterwards, pouncing on a pass back to goal before applying the final touch.<\/p>\n
Both sides had chances in the opening minutes, with Gillingham’s Nick Freeman denied by Luke McGee before Dylan Jones had a shot cleared off the line.<\/p>\n
Nathan Smith had a chance just after the half-hour mark following a Tom Ince corner, but his header was gathered by Ollie Wright.<\/p>\n
At the other end a James Brophy free-kick was headed goalward by Omar Beckles, but McGee was equal to it.<\/p>\n
The hosts finally did find the breakthrough on 68 minutes when Hale’s cross to the back post found Dobbs, and the centre-back was left unmarked to head home from close range.<\/p>\n
Hale ensured the points were safe soon after, pouncing on a defensive error and applying the final touch to find the back of the net.<\/p>\n
