In an electrifying display of football in the FA Trophy on October 7, 2023, Merthyr Town FC took on Dorchester Town FC resulting in a 3 - 1 victory for the home team.

The defining factor in the match was simply consistency in offensive play from Merthyr Town FC.

This highlights Merthyr Town FC's substantial improvement and fine-tuning in the second half, capitalizing on the team’s strengths against the defensive weaknesses of Dorchester Town FC.

On the disciplinary front, it was a clean game with no player receiving yellow or red cards from both sides.
