Whilst the stats showed that Scunthorpe had more possession than Hereford United - 53% against 47% - there's little doubt that the Bulls will feel they did enough to earn a point from this entertaining encounter especially as they hit the post in the dying stage of the game.
However Scunthorpe had 12 shots on target whereas the Bulls had nine.
Corners were 8 for the Iron and 9 for the Bulls and fouls 14 against Hereford and 12 against Scunthorpe.
Young referee Gavin Ward and his assistants controlled the game well although some may have thought he could have given Iron captain Issy Iriekpen a red card, as opposed to a yellow, when he brought down Hereford's man of the match Matt Dome in the box.
Dome received an eight for his hard graft. The only other player to be awarded an eight was Scunthorpe's Gary Hooper.
Keeper Randolph, defenders Broadhurst and Beckwith and midfielder Smith all received a seven.
The gate was 3004 with 294 in the away end.
