Bromley Miss Opportunity for Promotion After Goalless Draw with Cambridge

Bromley's bid for promotion to League One has been put on hold after they were held to a 0-0 draw by Cambridge United at Hayes Lane. The visitors had the better of the early chances, with Ben Knight and Dominic Ball both missing opportunities to open the scoring within the first 15 minutes. Bromley eventually created their first chance after 25 minutes, but Omar Sownunmi's header cleared the crossbar with goalkeeper Jack Walton beaten. Cambridge continued to threaten, with Shayne Lavery hitting the bar from Adam Mayor's cross on the half-hour mark. The second half took time to gain momentum, but Ben Knight's powerful drive on the angle forced a sharp save from Grant Smith. This sparked the hosts into life, with Ben Thompson and Jude Arthurs both seeing efforts saved or deflected over. As the match drew to a close, Smith made a brilliant save to tip Kelland Watts' header over, but despite a late scramble in the goalmouth, neither side could break the deadlock.
