Haringey Borough strengthened their position at the top of the Essex Premier Division after their 21st consecutive league win.

Boro’s exceptional record continued last night after a 4-2 win at Ilford.

The opening goal came when Dan Aristidou’s cross was headed home by Rakim Richards.

Ilford levelled the match before Darrell Cox restored Haringey’s lead.

The excellent Aristidou clinched the points with a second-half brace including a spectacular long-range effort from just inside Ilford’s half.

The hosts netted a late second but Boro comfortably extended their 100 per cent record this season.

Haringey face their closest challengers when second-placed FC Romania are the visitors this weekend.
