A battling Hendon performance came up just short against high flying Tiverton Town this afternoon at Silver Jubilee Park in an entertaining match.

A goalless first half saw both sides hitting the frame of the goal before the visitors went ahead with a neat lobbed finish from Jordan Bastin before Isaac Galliford equalised just after the hour mark.

Joshua Key fired home five minutes later and although Hendon pressed hard, Reece Mitchell's effort that hit the outside of the post was as close as they came to levelling things up.

Sergio Manesio saw red late on for a second yellow card stopping a Tiverton breakaway.
