Bradenham entertained Hellesdon in a league game at Hale Rd on Saturday, and the home side took the lead after just 10 mins when CROSS headed home from a Woodcock corner. The next threatening move came on 23 mins when Forder shot wide after a good move on the right. Just 2 mins later another corner on the right was headed wide by Melton. On 31 mins Bush went on a long run, then shot straight at the keeper. On 37 mins Bush floated a free kick wide of the left hand post, and the same player then shot straight at the keeper when put clear.
H T 1 - 0.
The hosts certainly had a number of chances in the first half which went begging, which meant Hellesdon were still well in the game, and within 2 mins of the restart a Hellesdon forward was clean through on goal, only to be thwarted by a fine smothering save by home keeper Butters. Bradenham still created chances, Bush shooting wide again before Cross set up Forder, who shot over. The home defence were generally soaking up any pressure created by the Hellesdon forwards, with Dagg having a particularly fine game at right back, but on 76 minutes alarm bells started to ring when a visiting forward headed just wide. On 78 mins Cross set up Bush, who again shot over, and just 3 mins later Hellesdon equalised from a left wing cross. They came close to getting a winner when Butters finger-tipped a point blank shot over the bar. The good news for Bradenham is that they are creating a considerable number of chances. The bad news is that they are having real problems converting them.
F T 1 - 1.
