Hendon Under-21s inflicted the first league defeat of the season on league champions Harrow Club at a very wet Claremont Road this evening. Despite the heavy rain, the pitch actually played very well and consequently the game was very entertaining and with all credit to both teams, was played in the right spirit. Harrow Club took the lead midway through the first half, and before the break they also hit the woodwork. However, the Greens fought back and were rewarded when Michael Roache scored in the 72nd minute, and the winner came just three minutes later when a shot from Raphael O'Selle was fumbled over the line by the Harrow keeper. The win gives Hendon a great chance of securing second place in the table.
