Harpenden Town 2 Sun Sports 1                                1955/56                               HCL Div One

"Fluke" goal was winner

Sun gave the champions a lesson in copy-book football for the major portion of the game, and were decidedly unlucky to lose by a "fluke" goal in the last 30 seconds.
From a free kick, the ball was crossed to the Sun goalmouth, where it struck a Harpenden player on the back and rolled into the goal.
With the slope in their favour in the first half, Sun got quickly into their stride.
Harpenden rarely got beyond the halfway line, and yet they were the first to score.
A Lamport shot hit the crossbar and one from Williams thudded against the upright, but Sun were denied a goal until the 35th minute when Olohan scored after a good move by Moulder and Box.
