ANDY Ducros broke his duck for Kidderminster Harriers with two goals in their 3-0 win at Stourport Swifts last night.
The club's record signing, snapped up from Nuneaton Borough for £80,000 last month, grabbed two second half goals on his first start for Jan Molby's side.
But the game was far from one-sided with Swifts, of the Midland Football Alliance, almost levelling the scores early in the second period.
Harriers opened the scoring on 20 minutes when Tony Bird met a Ben Davies cross, glancing a header into the top corner of keeper Rob Clarke's net.
And it was almost 2-0 seconds later when Barry Horne's 20-yard volley caught Clarke off his line only for the crossbar to come to his rescue.
Swifts introduced strikers Jamie Hart and Matt Southwick for the second half and they almost turned the game in Stourport's favour.
Hart twice fired inches wide of keeper Tim Clarke's left upright while Southwick forced a good save on the hour.
Three minutes later Ducros grabbed his first Harriers goal, forcing the ball over the line from Ian Foster's cross and the former Coventry City man rounded off the scoring in the final minute, squeezing a shot just inside the upright after jinking past his marker.
Harriers: Murphy (Clarke 45), Clarkson, Bennett, Webb, Shail, Pope, Davies, Horne, Bird (Corbett 78), Foster, Ducros.
