The forward’s 12th minute goal secured the Sports’ second consecutive league victory.
Supporters of both club also paid their respects to all those who have served and died in wartime service – with a pre-match service and minute’s silence.
The win takes Borough up to 12th in the table ahead of this Saturday’s trip to Ebbsfleet United in the FA Trophy second round proper.
