Brookmans Park stayed top of Herts Ad Sunday League Division Five after a late goal secured a 1-0 win over Radlett Town.
Park started brightly before Radlett got a grip on the game, but neither side created a clear-cut chance before half-time.
Much like the first, the second half was a back-and-forth affair, with the outcome of the clash still unclear.
It would be the league leaders who won it to secure a vital three points, when on 79 minutes Brookmans Park won a corner which was coolly dispatched into the Radlett Town net by Sammy Kinsley.
Elsewhere in Division Five, Aarron Crawford netted twice for St Albans Warriors in an excellent 3-2 win against Hatfield Comets, while both Jack Messam and Jed Glendinning scored braces in a convincing 5-1 win for Marshalswick Rovers against St Albans Lions.
In the Premier Division, Queens Head recorded their sixth league win of the season as they beat Six Bells 4-1, with goals coming from Llias Bakhti and Ade Goodenson.
Division One saw a narrow victory for Pinewood as a Carl Thompson goal secured a 1-0 win over Wheatsheaf, but there were plenty of goals in Division Three as TNF beat Oaks 10-2 with Steve Orchard, Jake Deacon, Tom Anderson, Max Bull, Oli Russell and Fred Brown all on the scoresheet.
