Hendon failed to gain revenge for this season's FA Cup defeat at the hands of Hitchin Town, going down 3-0 at Top Field for the second time this season. However, the Green's own players didn't help their cause. Matt Nolan scored Hitchin's first in the 33rd minute, but only after a Micky Woolner mistake in the area gave him a relatively easy chance. Woolner's evening got no better as he saw the red card in the 60th minute for a professional foul in the area, Shaun Marshall scoring from the resulting penalty. The third came from Cliff Akurang, putting the game beyond doubt.
