BUILD-UP
Hereford have not played for a month due to National League North being declared null and void. However, the Bulls will be confident mood having beaten higher-graded Aldershot last time - Josh Gowling's side overcoming the Hampshire side on penalties after a 1-1 draw. Woking, who beat Torquay 1-0 in the last round, are in a bit of 'mixed form' going into today's game, winning two of their last six games. Last week, they lost 1-0 to Hartlepool but bounced back in midweek by seeing off Wealdstone by the same scoreline.
FIRST HALF UPDATES

HALF TIME: Hereford 1-0 Woking (Butlin 21)
A fantastic header by Joey Butlin sees Hereford go into the half time break 1-0 up. The Bulls striker planted a beautiful header past Woking goalkeeper Craig Ross following a Michael Bakare cross. Hereford started well and deserved to go in front. However, Woking have come back into the game well and Josh Gowling's side have had to show their defensive threats to thwart what is quite a physical team. Brandon Hall did well to save a Sam Ashford cross while a loose ball instead went to a corner when the goal was gaping for the away side. Saying that, Hereford have had further chances to go further ahead, with Ross saving a Bakare shot three minutes before half time.
SECOND HALF UPDATES
51) A header from Jamie Grimes is punched over by Craig Ross. Good opportunity for Hereford to make it 2-0.
58) Woking have a goal disallowed. Sam Ashford headed the ball home but it was given for offside. There was a penalty shout for a foul by Brandon Hall, but it's not given. Hall is on a yellow card.
62) Now Hereford have a similar incident - the ball goes in the net but could have been a penalty leading up to it.
63) Chances for Bakare and Butroid.
65) More chances for Hereford. Finn fires over after Owen-Evans is denied
68) Josh Casey heads wide for Woking.
70) Woking make a double change.
76) Chris Camwell fires a free kick just wide.

87) Now Kouhyar comes on for Butlin.
90) Five minutes added on.
Hereford sub: Klukowski on for Finn. Earlier, Owen-Evans went down after taking a heavy blow.
90+6) Moussa Diarra can't get to the ball. Good chance for Woking.
IT'S ALL OVER!!! HEREFORD WIN 1-0 AND ARE GOING TO WEMBLEY!!!
The players and coaching staff celebrate wildly. What a shame no fans were allowed to attend as it would have been an electric atmosphere!!!
ANALYSIS
Hereford fully deserved the win, although they could and probably should have won by more. Woking had their chances, but didn't really trouble the Bulls on many occasions; their main threat coming from set pieces. Josh Gowling's boys have been solid throughout this run, and once again Jamie Grimes was a rock at the back, ably supported by Luke Haines. Chris Camwell who has also had a very good season - controlled the midfield well, and you always felt that Hereford had a goal or two in them. Considering all the Covid restrictions that have been in place this season, Gowling and Steve Burr deserve great credit, as do the players. They have rejuvenated the club and the relationship with the fans has been restored. Lets just hope as many fans as possible can attend the final.
