Two fantastic early goals from Soyinka (bringing his tally to four for the season) gave Harrow the lead against a determined Winchester side who were full of running. Harrow were 2-1 up at the break having lost Bartlett to a dead leg on 25 mins.

In the second half, despite some very heavy rain, Trower, Arghebant and Stead began to dominate the midfield with some tough challenges and quick feet. Stead grabbed a good goal and debutant Alex Cater bagged a well taken brace, showing the team's strength in depth.
