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. Cambridge had two gilt-edged chances to take the lead inside the first 15 minutes, with Ben Knight and Dominic Ball both missing from close range.
It took Bromley 25 minutes to create their first opportunity, with Omar Sownunmi's header flying over the bar 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 was a slow burner, but Knight's powerful drive on the angle drew a smart save from Grant Smith. This sparked the hosts into life, with Ben Thompson and Jude Arthurs both having efforts saved or deflected. With 10 minutes remaining, Smith made a superb save to tip Kelland Watts' header over, but despite a late flurry of activity in the Bromley box, neither side could find a breakthrough.
