Bromley Miss Opportunity to Secure 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 opportunities to take the lead early on, with Ben Knight and Dominic Ball both missing chances within the first 15 minutes. Bromley's first chance came after 25 minutes, as Omar Sownunmi's header sailed over the crossbar with goalkeeper Jack Walton beaten. Cambridge continued to push for a goal, with Shayne Lavery hitting the bar from Adam Mayor's cross on the half-hour mark. The second half saw Knight's powerful drive on the angle draw a sharp save from Grant Smith, which sparked the hosts into life. Ben Thompson's effort from close range was saved by Walton, and Jude Arthurs' follow-up chance was deflected over. With 10 minutes remaining, Smith made a brilliant save to tip Kelland Watts' header over, but despite a late goalmouth scramble, neither side could find a breakthrough.
