If you're certain that the last character is a space:
chop $HASH{$key};
If it might not be a space, and you only want to get rid of the last
character if it is a space:
$HASH{$key} =~ s/ $//;

You're using "match" to mean something that is evidently different from
what we're used to it meaning in Perl. Hopefully the above answers do what
you want anyway.
