Charlie Lee and Chris Whelpdale both scored for Stevenage to condemn Dagenham & Redbridge to a home defeat this afternoon.

After a scoreless first half, it only took five minutes after the restart for Stevenage to take the lead as Lee finished neatly on the six-yard box after being found by Dean Wells.

Whelpdale doubled Stevenage's lead 15 minutes after Lee's opener, as the ball was forced across the box from Dean Parrett for the midfielder to finish off.

Dagenham sit two points above the relegation zone, with this defeat their 13th loss in 16 home games in all competitions.

Stevenage move up to 10th in the table after their first away victory in 16 attempts in the league.
