Injury robbed Sun

Unlucky Sun. A goal up and playing well enough to win they lost newly signed inside forward Tanner five minutes before the interval.
Tanner had earlier gone off after 20 minutes: Then he returned.
He was all set to return a second time when he collapsed and was rushed to Watford Peace Memorial Hospital and after X-ray, was detained for 24 hours.
This was the third time this season that Sun have had to play the second half of a game with a player short.
Until the moment Tanner was first injured Sun had looked all set to pick up the points.
In the seventh minute Terry Willis had shot them into the lead and more goals looked like materialising.
Stansted got on terms after 35 minutes and ten minutes after the interval a mix up in front of Sun's goal let the visitors in for a second goal.
Play, naturally, favoured Stansted in the second half but towards the end had a couple of good chances.
