March to the Arch is rapidly heading towards 1st Round ‘proper’ day. First there is a small matter of the 4th Qualifying Round.Hendon were the standard bearer for Sports Pulse going into the 3rd Qualifying Round. After dispatching Oxhey Jets in the previous round, they headed deep into Essex. Destination, the banks of the Blackwater, to face Maldon & Tiptree.
With 149 people in Attendance, it was a sloppy affair. Hendon welcomed the return of a number of players, notably Issiah Rankin, but not enough to prevent Maldon taking the lead on the 34th minute mark.
The greens had to wait until near the hour before equalising, when Carl McCluskey deflected shot found the net. Minutes later Greg Ngoyi, found himself one on one with the keeper and slotted the ball passed him to make the score 2-1. Hendon were now heading for victory. The scoring was complete in the last 10 minutes when Elliott Godfrey scored to make the 3-1 and sent Hendon into the 4th Qualifying Round.
Maldon & Tiptree 1 Hendon 3 final score.
Hendon now travel to Kenilworth Road and face Luton Town, in the 4th Qualifying Round and 1 step away from the 1st Round Proper. My mate Cloughie may have some feed back on the build up on a Luton Town viewpoint. Hendon still bear the standard for Sports Pulse and pick a maximum 8 points up, for the March to the Arch 3 Merit Table.
A full tracker report will appear after Luton Town v Hendon 4th Qualifying Round - F.A.Cup
