A Connor Calcutt strike in the first half gave Hendon a 1-0 win over Leyton Orient in the London Senior Cup.
A largely youthful Orient side gave as good as they got in a tight game that was decided by a piece of impudent skill and finishing by Calcutt when he received the ball inside the penalty area, cut onto his left foot and finished into the far corner.
The second half saw both sides create half-chances without really threatening either goalkeeper as the Greens held on to progress.
