Hendon put in a decent performance in their first friendly, despite losing 1-0 to a Boreham Wood side who already had two pre-season games under their belt.

The only goal came in the 5th minute when Ali Chaaban converted a penalty having been brought down by Berkley Laurencin, the only thing the young keeper did wrong all afternoon.

The best chance for the Greens fell to trialist Carl McCluskey who saw his shot well saved early in the second half.
