Worthing come from behind to continue unbeaten start
Ex-Bognor striker Chinedu McKenzie's opener was cancelled by efforts from Alex Parsons - his first of the season - and in-form frontman David Ajiboye either side of the break as Worthing sealed a 2-1 win at Haringey Borough.
Worthing went in to the contest having dropped points in the league for the first time this season at home to rivals Burgess Hill Town last time out.
