David De Silva hit a brace to help FC Leytonstone get back to winning ways in the East London Barking & Dagenham Sunday League.
The Lemons visited Lucien All Stars looking to get on track again after back-to-back defeats.
Leytonstone started strongly with teenage debutant Qasim Ali opening the scoring before captain Micah Stennett doubled their advantage.
