Hartlepool United’s wait for an away point continued in League Two as they were beaten 1-0 at Sutton United on Tuesday evening.
Ben Goodliffe’s first half strike was enough to separate the sides at Gander Green Lane as Sutton made their dominance count.
It was a frustrating evening for Pools who struggled to get going until the final few minutes when Olofela Olomola and Jamie Sterry both saw headers go wide.
