League Two: Barnet 0 Aldershot 1
A Craig Reid penalty brought Barnet’s three-game unbeaten run came to an end as they finished the game with ten men at Underhill.
Bees player-coach Edgar Davids missed the clash due to a shoulder injury but his men made it to half time on terms.
Then things unravelled three minutes after the restart when Andy Iro – the goal hero in Saturday’s last gasp comeback to draw 2-2 at Exeter – handled in the penalty area.
Reid converted but then Jon Nurse - who also scored at the weekend - was sent of moments later for serious foul play and the hosts were unable to find an equaliser.
Emmanuel Adebayor said Clint Dempsey “showed Tottenham the way” as his equalising goal inspired Andre Villas-Boas’ side to a crucial 2-1 win over Stoke City on Sunday.
