Exeter City 1-2 Dagenham & Redbridge

John Still
John Still first managed Dagenham & Redbridge in 1992

Ashley Chambers headed the winner against Exeter City to give John Still a triumphant start to his third spell as Dagenham & Redbridge manager.

Joss Labadie nodded the visitors ahead early on, meeting a Ashley Hemmings corner from the right at the back post.

Alex Nicholls tested visiting keeper Mark Cousins, while Chambers and Christian Doidge went close.

Tom Nicols levelled with a header only for Chambers to lift Dagenham out of the relegation places with the winner.

Dagenham & Redbridge manager John Still told BBC Radio London:

"For an away performance, very, very pleased. Very pleased, it was difficult conditions for both teams.

"That never say die attitude, that team ethic, that everyone playing for the team. I thought it became evident the longer the game went on.

"I think when your confidence is low, to get back-to-back wins is a fantastic thing."
