Harrow Borough bounced back from their crushing defeat at Cray Wanderers with a convincing 2-0 win over Lowestoft Town on Tuesday night.

Goals from Troy Hewitt and Kurt Morlese earned the win for Harrow in a game that shared some similarities to the previous defeat. Boro were hammered 5-1 on Saturday but produced the perfect response at Earlsmead.

Harrow were reduced to ten men in that game and the same fate met them on Tuesday as Danny Leech was given his marching orders after two bookable offences towards the end of the first half.

But the similarities between the two games ended there.

Manager David Howell said: "Last time we made it easy for the opposition when we went down to ten men.

"We contributed to our own downfall that day and we were not going to let that happen again."

Harrow Borough held on to keep a clean sheet, having learnt from Saturday's mistakes, in what Howell described as a "thoroughly deserved battling win".

The Ryman Premier Division win over Lowestoft saw Howell hand debuts to three players from the reserve team due to injuries.

Howell praised his team stating: "This was the best second half performance of any Harrow Borough team I've managed".

Harrow Boro will look to build on this performance as they travel to Great Wakering Rovers on Saturday for a tricky FA Cup tie where a list of injuries mean Howell will not be taking anything for granted.
