Whyteleafe started brightly and had two chances in the first 10 minutes that both fell to Jordan Wilson. The first after three minutes saw his shot saved by Phil Wilson then in the 10th minute, a crude challenge from Obamwonyi saw a free kick awarded on the right.
Mark Hammond's free kick was cleared as far as Wilson who struck the ball well, Wilson fumbling the ball but managed to grab it at the second attempt as it trickled towards the goal.
Dulwich however took the lead with their first real chance of the match. Former 'Leafe favourite Junior Kadi took a free kick midway in the Leafe half from the left. He found Obamwonyi unmarked in the box and his well directed header left Rob O'Hara wrong footed and went into the net.
'Leafe continued to attack and were rewarded with an equaliser in the 20th minute. Sam Butler took a corner on the right and it came off the arm of Obamwonyi to Fred Fleming who scored from close range. Fleming was denied his first 'Leafe goal by the referee who had blown too quickly for the handball and did not allow the advantage. Hammond made no mistake from the spot to level the scores.
Play for the rest of the half was very even with neither keeper being called upon before half time.
Dulwich started the second half brightly with Sol Pinnock forcing a save from O'Hara in the 51st minute. The visitors were looking dangerous on the break with the speedy Sanchez Ming causing problems on the right. Ming found Pinnock in front of goal again in the 61st minute but O'Hara made a great save to tip the ball round the post.
Whyteleafe came more into the game and for the rest of the half looked the more likely to find a winner with substitutes McDowell and Platel worrying the defence. Danny Oakins took a long throw in the 73rd minute that was flicked on by Rhys Coleman but cleared off the line with Hammond ready to pounce. Oakins was also unlucky in the 82nd minute when he got his head to a McDowell cross but Wilson was quickly out to punch the ball clear off the head of Oakins.
The game seemed to be headed for a draw when suddenly there was a flurry of goals in stoppage time. Sol Pinnock was sent clear in the 90th minute and fired into the far corner of the net for a late winner.
But the visitors were not finished there. Ming took the ball into the area and O'Hara, despite getting a hand to the ball was judged to have brought him down and a penalty awarded. O'Hara disputed this vehemently but only received a yellow card for his trouble.
Kadi sent O'Hara the wrong way for their third goal. Straight from the kick off 'Leafe lost the ball to Pinnock who ran straight at goal, but was brought down just outside the box.
The free kick from Kadi found Ming in the box who put the ball into the net to give the scoreline a rather flattering look for the visitors in a match that just three minutes earlier had looked to be heading for stalemate.
Whyteleafe: O'Hara, Aldous, Fleming, Oakins (Martin 90), Coleman R, Wilson, Goodchild, Kember, Hammond (Platel 56), Scott (McDowell 45), Butler.
