Match report
Hornchurch Edge Woking in Narrow Victory
Hornchurch beat Woking 1:0 in the National League Regular Season - 4 at Hornchurch Stadium on August 28, 2026. The result keeps the hosts in third place with twelve points from five games, while Woking remain rooted to the bottom of the table with just four points.
The match stayed quiet until the second half. T. Wraight picked up a yellow card in the twenty-sixth minute, then R. Syla went down the same route forty-eight minutes in. Hornchurch brought on N. Ferguson and J. Ayres together on the hour mark, followed by C. Pegrum sixty-two minutes later. And here's the thing — the game only opened up seventy-five minutes in when A. Rowe scored the only goal.
Woking made more changes overall. T. Akinola and T. Odusina came on together in the eighty-fourth minute, while M. Weston and J. Walker arrived eighty-seven minutes in. Both H. Hearn and S. Ogie received yellow cards in stoppage time, bringing the final count to two bookings for each side.
Woking controlled the ball with sixty-four per cent possession and launched one hundred and eleven attacks, but could not find the target — zero shots on target from six attempts off target. Hornchurch had thirty-six per cent of the ball, registered two shots on target and scored from one of them. They also completed ninety-five attacks with five corners to Woking's five. By then it was too late for the visitors.
Hornchurch's form has been impressive — four wins from five league games, with only one defeat at home to Carlisle. Woking, meanwhile, have managed just one victory and one draw, losing three times and sitting in twentieth place. The scoreline tells you everything about a match that belonged to the hosts despite the statistics suggesting otherwise.
