Hornchurch beat Tamworth to end three-match losing run in league


Tamworth levelled in the 36th minute through captain Olly Dyson.
Hornchurch snapped a three-match losing run in the Enterprise National League by beating Tamworth 2-1 in Upminster.
Henry Hearn, who scored in last weekend’s extra-time FA Cup defeat by Blackpool, connected with Angelo Balanta’s slide-rule pass in the 24th minute to slot the hosts’ opener past Jonathan Macaulay.
Tamworth levelled in the 36th minute as captain Olly Dyson hoovered up the ball on the edge of the box and pinged it into the bottom left corner.
Josh Walker restored the Urchins’ lead with 66 minutes played as Balanta got his second assist with a header that found his team-mate for the winner.
