Bromley Miss Opportunity to Secure Promotion After Goalless Draw with Cambridge
Bromley's ascent to League One has been delayed further after they were held to a draw by Cambridge United at Hayes Lane. Cambridge had opportunities to take the lead within the first 15 minutes, with Ben Knight and Dominic Ball both missing chances. Bromley's first scoring opportunity came after 25 minutes, when Omar Sownunmi's header sailed over the crossbar. Cambridge continued to threaten, with Shayne Lavery hitting the bar from Adam Mayor's cross. The second half saw a slow start, but Knight's powerful shot on the angle prompted a sharp save from Grant Smith. This sparked Bromley into life, with Ben Thompson and Jude Arthurs both having efforts saved. With 10 minutes left, Grant Smith made a crucial save to tip Kelland Watts' header over, and despite a late scramble, neither team could break the deadlock.
