The Greens quickly brushed off the setback though, and after a number of strong chances they restored parity in the 20th minute after talisman Michael Simpson worked a yard of space to net.
The game poised at 1-1 would have provided Benjamin's side the ideal platform to push on in the second-half but it wasn't to be as, a matter of minutes before the whistle, Sudbury again took the lead, this time via Danny Brown.
Desperate to get back on terms, Soham upped their work rate in the second-half and their endeavour paid off just past the hour mark as Dubi Ogbonna notched his 14th goal of the season.
There were half-chances for either side as the game progressed but some resilient defending ensured that neither of the sides afforded the opposition any clear cut opportunities in the latter stages of the game.
