Tigers Pay The Penalty At Hertford

Spartan South Midlands Football League Premier Division

Hertford Town 1 (D Mitchell)

Kingsbury London Tigers 0

Attendance 76

A 76th minute penalty proved enough to separate the two teams this afternoon as Kingsbury London Tigers went down to a 1-0 defeat at Hertford Town.

Tigers Custodian Axinte Valentin had to leave the field in the second half due to an injury and was replaced by Paulo Meron.

It would prove to be a turning point as not long after taking the field, the replacement keeper was lucky not to see red after needlessly bringing down 'Blues' Ryan Redford for a penalty that Daryl Mitchell sent past Meron, for what would prove to be the only goal of the afternoon.

Goalscorer Mitchell was shown a second yellow and Hertford saw out the final five minutes with ten men.

The Tigers are at home to Harefield United on Tuesday night and both teams will be eager to climb the table with the Tigers in 15th place and Harefield in 18th.
