The first team came away from Taunton Town with a very creditable 3-3 draw, but would be disappointed, having conceded a penalty in the sixth minute of second half stoppage time.
The main man for the Greens, certainly going forward, was Ricardo German, who netted his first hat-trick for the club, scoring in the 7th and 34th minutes to put the visitors two goals ahead. The defence were subjected to an aerial bombardment as the home side used their tall striker Matt Wright as a target, and they were rewarded when he scored shortly before half-time.
Ten minutes into the second period German restored the two goal lead, only to see Dan Sullivan pull another goal back in the 66th minute. Hendon had a penalty shout turned down when Dylan Kearney appeared to be fouled in the box with about ten minutes to go. Then, deep into stoppage time - the referee had indicated a minimum of six minutes additional time - a Hendon player was ruled to have handled the ball in the area and a penalty was awarded. Matt Wright stepped up to score the equaliser and his second of the afternoon.
However, on the balance of play, perhaps a draw was a fair result, and the Greens have at least kept their unbeaten start to the season going.
