Sun lose to County league leaders

Unlucky Sun!
Until eighteen minutes from time it looked as if they would be the first team to lower the Harpenden colours in the league this season.
Then misfortune overtook them, O'Doherty having to leave the field with an injury and taking no further part of the game.
By half time Sun had established a 2-1 lead, thanks to a brace of goals from Peter Watt.
That was not all.
They were good value, and the spectators agreed that Sun's play was the best served up by a visiting team.
O'Doherty's injury changed the face of the game.
Harpenden drew level, and with the Sun falling back on defence, the home side seized their opportunities to take their tally to six before the end.
