Redbourn 3 Sun Sports 2 1965/66 HCL Prem
Sun are beaten by last kick
Sun went down to defeat with the last kick of the match at Redbourn on Saturday after they had struggled with 10 fit men for most of the game.
A 14th minute knee injury to Ron Rooney reduced the wing half to a limping passenger but by that time Sun were already a goal up.
Geoff Bunce scoring after five minutes.
Sun went further ahead in the 23rd minute when Terry Reynolds was on target following a Barry Langdale - Bunce movement.
The visitors were good value for their lead at this point but Mancini pulled back a goal for Redbourn with a neat chip from a free kick.
Billy Burke made several fine saves to thwart the home forwards in the early stages of the second period but the defence, in which new signing Peter Archer was outstanding, held its ground until Rooney retired for the last time in the 68th minute.
Redbourn pressed with renewed vigour and equalised in fortunate fashion when Burrows' long shot beat both defenders and goalkeeper.
The 10 men tired in the final minutes and Goodhew earned both points for Redbourn when he scored right on time.
