Sutton United 2-1 Harrogate Town

  • Published

Harry Beautyman starred with an assist and the match-winning goal as Sutton claimed a 2-1 victory over Harrogate, who have now earned one point from their past five matches.

Harrogate keeper James Belshaw was called upon to save well from Tom Bolarinwa's shot from distance in the eighth minute.

But there was nothing Belshaw could have done to stop Sutton taking the lead in the 19th minute. Beautyman's accurate free-kick was headed past Belshaw by Jonah Ayunga for his fourth league goal of the season.

Harrogate were back on level terms on the hour mark when George Thomson cut inside onto his left foot and dispatched the ball into the top corner.

However, eight minutes from time, Beautyman popped up to score the winner, poking home from close range to ensure Sutton climb above Harrogate into sixth place in the table.
