  • ROLLING MATCH REPORT
  • Matt Yates in the Hereford goal was forced into action in the opening minute as Jamie Chandler got between the defenders.
  • At the other end new signing Rowan Liburd was almost handed an opener after a pass back to goalkeeper Matthew Gould was intercepted by Tom Owen-Evans.
  • However, the goalkeeper just recovered and cleared the chance.
  • The hosts should have been ahead on the 17th minute when Hereford center-halves Jordan Cullinane-Liburd and Louis Ezewele both missed the ball with headers.
  • Diamond was handed a golden chance to put his side ahead but put his effort wide.
  • Glen Taylor was next to have a golden chance for the visitors but sent his free header over.
  • Jak Hickman was next to deny the hosts as Taylor's effort looked a certain goal only for the full-back to deflect the ball onto the bar.
  • That marked the turn of the tie as on the 34th minute the Bulls took the lead after Kyle Finn saw his initial shot saved before Lance Smith fired home into the bottom corner.
  • They doubled their lead a minute before the lead after Tom Owen-Evans was tripped inside the box before getting up and scoring from the penalty spot.
  • The hosts had a great chance to pull a goal back early in the second half after Jamie Chandler overlapped and found Taylor unmarked inside the box. He swung his boot at it but wasted the chance.
  • However, the Bulls looked just as likely to score a third and Kieran Thomas cut inside before seeing his low effort saved.
  • STATS
  • Hereford welcome Rowan Liburd into their side in place of Symons while Kieran Thomas returns from suspension.
  • Ezewele comes in for Gowling and Finn replaces Richards.
