Bromley Miss Opportunity for Promotion After Goalless Draw with Cambridge

Bromley's bid for promotion to League One has been put on hold following a 0-0 draw with Cambridge United at Hayes Lane. Cambridge had the chance to take an early lead within the first 15 minutes, but Ben Knight and Dominic Ball both missed opportunities, with Knight shooting wide and Ball's effort also going wide from Liam Bennett's cross. Bromley's first chance came after 25 minutes, with Omar Sownunmi's header going over the bar, leaving goalkeeper Jack Walton beaten. Cambridge had another chance on the half-hour mark when Shayne Lavery's header from Adam Mayor's cross hit the bar. The second half took time to gain momentum, but Ben Knight's powerful shot on the angle drew a sharp save from Grant Smith, sparking the hosts into action. Ben Thompson then saw his close-range effort saved by Walton, and Jude Arthurs' follow-up chance was deflected over. With 10 minutes left, Grant Smith made a brilliant save to tip Kelland Watts' header over, but despite a late scramble in the goalmouth, neither team could find a breakthrough.
