​Tudors leave it late in win

Joe Iaciofano scored two penalties, the second of them deep in second-half stoppage time, to seal three points and add to the draw at home to Truro City on Saturday.

And after two testing encounters in a short space of time, Quinton was proud of his players.

He told the club’s social media channels: “It was really deserved given the shift the boys put in within 48 hours [of the last game]. We had seven or eight players injured but who should be back for the weekend but as a precaution we had to manage it and those boys who are out are buzzing to be back in training and were here supporting us tonight.

"All of the boys worked their socks off and it’s the stuff we’ve worked on in terms of the patterns and everything is paying off.

"We looked really energetic considering it was two games in 48 hours and the changes we had to make and the boys were on it tonight.”

Hemel now prepare to go to Worthing on Saturday, who before Tuesday night’s games were third in the National League standings.
