And breathe!
And that's a wrap. Really tough game against a team who came out strong in the second half. We stuck in it despite the injuries and players missing, a result and performance we can be proud of.

The Dons counter...
We counter with numbers but the pace slows down as Niko lays the ball off to Ferrini who's strike is tame and trickles wide.
Empty net!
A cross is fizzed across the Hendon box and the Hanworth striker has an empty net but the ball skims off the side of his foot and goes just wide. Huge chance.
5 minutes added
Tense end to the game. Could fall either way...

Maloney booked.


Shaban off Brant on. Shaban has put in a good performance running down the Hanworth defence causing problems.

Let's go Dons!
The Dons are growing in confidence and playing some great football. Lucien does fantastic to beat his man inside the Hanworth box but his left footed strike is gathered by the keeper.

Gordon cautioned.
Hanworth win a free kick outside the centre circle.


Ferrini shoots!
Ferrini lets off a signature power strike which is palmed over the bar. Hendon win a corner which is cleared easily. Hanworth counter well and have another clear chance but the shot is just wide.
Ferdinand scores.
We fail to clear a ball pumped up the pitch and the Hanworth attacker capitalises by picking up the loose ball.

Hanworth getting forward.
Hanworth have had a few one on ones after capitalising on our injury. Somehow they haven't scored after the latest one on one strike is a cannoned off a stationary Strizovic.
Chances at either side!
Dundas does very well to beat his man and link up with Shaban. Shaban bears down the right and passes inside to Dundas who's shot goes just wide of the post. Hanworth reply with a dangerous chance which is saved by the foot of Strizovic.

Hendon Sub
Due to an injury Stirling off Lucien on


Hanworth Sub
Sam Merson replaced Jack Timberlake. There is a break in play as Stirling is down injured.

Just wide
Aftee some chaotic play outside the Hendon box the ball is laid off to the Hanworth 3 who side foots his shot from outside the box to the bottom right corner. The ball looks to kiss the post, but it's just wide.
Looped ball...
The Hanworth striker turned defender pumps a ball from defence to the number 9 who picks up a great position but fails to control the pass.
Unreal save!
Hendon break and Ada takes time to unleash a powerful curling shot from outside the box, the keeper dives fantastically to tip it wide. Looked like a certain goal.

Hanworth start with a sub.
Hollis off Selloum on.


Not controversial to say that we deserve to be up at halftime. A dogged performance, we've created chances and challenged well in good positions. Let's keep it going Dons ๐

Ada
Hendon break fast as Niko runs forward with the ball. He sends a ball through to Ada who smashes home! Great attack, great goal!


Niko Offside!
Hanworth loose possession from the goalkeepers clearance and the ball gets played immediately to Niko who rounds the keeper but is flagged offside.

Cole
Cynical foul 35 yards from the goal. The free kick amounts to nothing.


Dundas Booked
Dundas tries to win possession on the halfway line but he is deemed to have dangerously swiped the Hanworth defender even though no contact was made.

Tough battle.
The Dons are fighting in SW London and are tackling well in the middle of the park. We win possession again in the Hanworth 3rd and Dundas gets another chance to fire from 25/30 yards but the ball flies wide.
WORLDIE FROM NIKO
Gordon wins the ball in the centre circle and the ball falls to Muir who pings the ball 40 yards straight over the keepers head. Unreal finish.

Correia scores
Hanworth win possession in a dangerous area and we are punished by Correia who goes through the channel and finishes calmly.

Confident Dundas
We are growing in confidence and getting in more positive positions. Dundas uses some great skill to beat two defenders and lets off a shot which is collected by the keeper.
Dundas!
The Hanworth keeper hasn't had the best start after scuffing two clearances and had a clearance cannon of Shaban who closed well. The ball was worked well by Hendon and Dundas let off a tame shot outside the box.
Cross across goal...
Dundas and Ada link up well outside the box and Ada lets off a strong low cross which goes through the crowd.
Keegan asserts dominance
Keegan uses his body well to knock the Hanworth attacker off the ball and calm play at the back.
Strong start from Hanworth
Strong start from Hanworth
Hanworth start well with some early pressure from a deep throw into the box and a powerful shot which goes wide.

Hendon Kick Off
Lineups will be announced closer to kick-off.
