IMPROVING Bromyard Town moved up to sixth in the West Midlands League premier division with an important 1-0 win against Goodrich.
BROMYARD TOWN 1, GOODRICH 0
In tricky conditions against a physical team, play was fairly even in the first half.
The only real Bromyard chance went to Chris Allen whose shot was well-saved by the visiting keeper.
After the break Bromyard dominated play with long spells of possession. But they found Goodrich's men-behind-the-ball tactics difficult to break down.
With 24 minutes left Bromyard made changes and a few minutes later went ahead. Substitute Carl Fairhurst's free- kick went in off a Goodrich defender for the only goal of the match.
Although the visitors did create a couple of chances along with the home team, Bromyard just had the edge on the day and deservedly took all three points.
Midfielder Justin Ballinger had a tremendous game for the Herefordshire outfit.
Tomorrow (Saturday) Bromyard Town are at home to Gornal Athletic (2.45pm).
Bromyard Town bowed out of the league cup on Wednesday when they lost 2-0 at league leaders Tipton Town.
