Woodford Town made the short trip across the borough for a local derby clash against Ilford at Cricklefields Stadium, and left with a point to their name following Angus Hastings' second-half strike.

The hosts got off to a flying start in IG1, with Joel Appiah firing Ilford into the lead with just four minutes on the clock. However, a much-changed Woods side settled into the game and soon got on-top. We had plenty of chances to pull level, but would have to wait until the 42nd minute to do so, as Hastings scored his first goal in yellow and blue on the brink of half time.

Despite pressing for a winner in the second half and spending the majority of the clash dominating possession, we were forced to settle for a draw, meaning our winless run goes on, but finally there is an end to our losing run which has spanned over a month.

Starting XI: C. Jackson (GK); Costa-Campbell, Agboola (C), Hastings, Mandangu-Makangu; Kaikai, Stewart, Miller; Silva, Oji, Mavididi.

Substitutes: Owusu, Scott, Lemba, Boampeng, Lawal
