Mani Dieseruvwe’s double snatches 10-man Hartlepool victory against Gateshead
Posted Sunday, August 13, 2023 by PA
Mani Dieseruvwe struck twice on his debut for 10-man Hartlepool, including a last-minute winner, as they beat National League rivals Gateshead 2-1 at the Suit Direct Stadium.
Dieseruvwe, signed from FC Halifax in July, gave Pools an ideal start with an early opener and popped up with a last-gasp winner after Robbie Tinkler had levelled for Gateshead in the second half.
Pools played most of the second half with 10 men after striker Josh Umerah was shown a straight red card for a challenge on Tinkler.
Charlie Seaman provided the assist for Dieseruvwe to give Hartlepool a 10th-minute lead and goalkeeper Joel Dixon ensured they went in 1-0 up at the break with a fine save to deny Ed Francis.
Umerah saw red for a rash tackle and although Tinkler hauled the visitors level in the 66th minute, Dieseruvwe notched his second from close range in the dying moments.
