Folkestone Invicta saw two men sent-off and conceded a last-gasp goal as they went down 2-1 at Hendon in Ryman League Premier Division.

The hosts took the lead on 21 minutes through Lubomir Guentchev but Allan Tait equalised for the Seasiders after the break.

Invicta defender Josh Vincent was sent-off, along with the Greens' Casey MacLaren after a fracas following a challenge on Vincent and Hendon snatched the points late-on through Brian Haule.

Invicta midfielder Darren Smith was also red-carded late-on after a poor challenge.

Horsham's win over Hastings meant Invicta dropped back into the bottom four where they lie a place and a point above Maidstone United.

The Stones secured a point from a 1-1 draw against Tooting & Mitcham at Homelands on Saturday.

Rob Haworth put the visitors ahead seven minutes before the break with a header and Stones keeper Harry Lee was needed to keep the visitors from increasing their lead.

Debutant Tony Boot (pictured) came off the bench to lash home the equaliser on 83 minutes after Colin Richmond's shot had been spilled.

Paul Vines - on his first appearance sincing joining the Stones on loan from Bromley, with Danny Hockton going the other way - spurned a glorious chance to win the game late on, firing over when clean through.

Cray Wanderers' game against Croydon Athletic was in doubt until a 10am pitch inspection at Hayes Lane but they eventually cruised to a 4-0 victory.

Leigh Bremner was the hero, scoring after five and nine minutes to put the Wands on their way, before completing his treble three minutes from time.

Nathan Ashton added a fourth in stoppage time as Cray went back to fourth in the table.
