Hackney Wick FC kept their title hopes alive with a hard-fought 2-0 victory over Enfield Borough, sealing the win in dramatic fashion with a last-minute goal.

Enfield started strongly and were the better side in the first half, making life difficult for Hackney. A goalless first 45 minutes saw Hackney struggle to impose themselves, but after the break, they came out with renewed energy and showed why they are serious contenders for the title.

The breakthrough finally arrived courtesy of top scorer Issa Sidibie, who calmly rounded the keeper before slotting into an empty net. However, Enfield refused to go down without a fight and continued to apply pressure.

Hackney finally wrapped up the three points in the dying moments when Sidibie turned provider, cutting the ball back for Max Grappy, who fired home his third goal of the season.

This crucial win brings Hackney Wick within three points of league leaders Harlow Town, with a game in hand. Next up: a fiery East London derby against Barkingside.
