Sun Sports' incredible revival

Sun Sports brought off an incredible Premier Division revival at Bellmountwood Avenue on  Saturday, for with less than 23 minutes left they were trailing 0-3.
Man who inspired the rally was John Low - brother of Watford's professional, Roy Low.
The transformation was started by a goal from Terry Reynolds, it was quickly followed by one from Barry Phillips.
With only one goal to pull back, Sun monopolised play and levelled the scores through Bob Davies.
Another header, this time from Bernard Kent, put Sun ahead and John Matthews made certain of the victory from the penalty spot.
Knebworth had taken advantage of defensive slips to help themselves to what seemed an unassailable three goal lead, but when Kevin Stratford went limping off early in the second half.
Sun made the changes which brought dividends.
Full back Low was moved into the front line and the forwards, who had lacked penetration early on, changed quickly into a more potent force.
