Basingstoke 0-1 Bromley
Bromley had the chance to go 10 points clear in the Skrill South and took the game by the scruff of the neck from early in the game and took all three points in a fiercely competitive game. A bad tempered affair for the majority of the first half with 4 yellow cards dished out to the home team in a fifteen minute spell.
Pierre Joseph-Dubois got the only goal of the game with a well taken free-header into the top left corner leaving Louis Wells helpless in the 35th minute. Home goalkeeper Louis Wells then received lengthy medical attention having been bundled into the back of his own net by on rushing Bromley defender Rob Swaine.
Basingstoke began to mount pressure onto the away side in the second half however failing to create any clear cut chances much to the credit of the Bromley defence. Basingstoke maintained much of the possession for the remainder of the game, yet lacked creativity in the final third.
Basingstoke's chances of a come back were dealt a further blow when captain David Ray received a second yellow card from deliberate hand ball. Jordace Holder-Spooner saw a fierce left foot drive tipped over by Joe Welch in the Bromley goal as the visitors held on well to claim all three points.
