AFC Sudbury secured a 3-1 victory over Lowestoft Town in a National League North matchup marked by a late surge from the home side. The win was sealed by two goals in the final 10 minutes at their home ground on August 29, 2026.

Lowestoft Town, known as the Trawler Boys, started the game sluggishly and conceded in the 18th minute. The visitors were unable to effectively defend an in-swinging corner kick, which allowed Jordan Barnett to head the ball past goalkeeper Ben Self and put Sudbury ahead. Following the goal, Lowestoft improved their play and created opportunities to level the score, including a close call when Luca Upton struck the woodwork.

Lowestoft eventually equalized just before halftime through Henry Pollock, who scored from long range with a precise shot into the bottom corner of the net. After the break, both sides generated additional chances, but neither managed to change the scoreline until late in the match.

In the 80th minute, Tom Maycock restored Sudbury’s lead by calmly chipping the ball over Self after being afforded space in the attacking third. The home team then capitalized on a counter-attack to solidify their victory when Reuben Chinnery scored a third goal in the closing stages.

The result reflected a well-fought match with Sudbury ultimately asserting control in the final moments, securing three points as they continue their campaign in the non-league tiers.
