Hungerford Town and Tiverton Town played out a 1-1 draw in a closely contested Southern South fixture, in a match marked by early goals and a tightly balanced second half. The game took place on August 8, 2026.

Tiverton took the lead in the 22nd minute, when a well-executed move down the right flank saw Finn Roberts deliver a precise low cross to the near post. Louis Jagger-Cane reacted swiftly to convert the chance, giving Tiverton an early advantage.
