GOLDEN BOY STILL LIVING THE DREAM

The Maidstone-born midfielder blasted a 74th-minute winner into the top corner from outside the box to ensure the National League South Stones downed League Two Barrow 2-1 last Saturday.

Gurung is a product of the club’s youth set-up where he was spotted and offered a scholarship by Crystal Palace in 2017.

He has since headed back to Maidstone via spells playing in Scandinavia and nailed down a regular spot despite the club’s arduous end to last season in the National League.

His fitting finish set social media alight but while he has enjoyed being the centre of attention, Gurung is quick to share the plaudits.

“I have probably watched it back a bit too much,” Gurung admitted.
