Our live feed has now finished.

  • FT: Blyth Spartans 2 (Aitken, Liddle) Hereford 1 (Cowley). Attendance: 865.
  • A quiet, windswept half came to life 10 minutes before half-time when Lewis Knight's clever short corner came back out and then back in to bamboozle the Hereford backline with substitute Charlie Aitken firing through the crowd to net.
  • Jason Cowley levelled six minutes later, latching onto a ball from Lassana Mendes before isolating his man and firing a crisp shot past keeper Alex Mitchell.
  • Livewire Cowley had to come off at half-time and Blyth started the second half well with Michael Liddle on hand to rifle home after being found by Rhys Evans eight minutes after the restart.
  • Kyle Howkins hit the post for the Bulls from a corner shortly after and Alex Babos was denied at point-blank range by Mitchell late in the day as Hereford went for it but they paid the price for not quite having enough punch in the final third.
  • Blyth: Mitchell, Evans, Liddle, Clark, Cousin-Dawson, Knight, Hickey, Hooper, Forbes, Deverdicks, McGowan
  • Subs: Aitken, Shaw, Oliver, Hogan, Arnison
  • Hereford: Pond, Skinner, Livingstone, Teixeira, Babos, Cowley, Cranston, Mendes, Rooney, Cameron, Howkins
