In his post match interview after last night's game at Edgar Street, Kettering assistant manager John Ramshaw felt that his keeper's mistake which lead to Hereford's first goal turned the game.
“I thought we were dominating things before the first goal but Rhys has made a mistake and the tide of the game just turned,” Ramshaw said.
“We had plenty of possession in the first half and I think we must have put the ball into their box at least 20 times and we’d had a number of corners before they got one.
“There was a strong wind blowing from goal to goal and we haven’t made their goalkeeper work in the first half, despite the fact we put so many balls into their box. He’s not had a save to make.
“Then we have let a sloppy goal in and the game just turned on that.
“Hereford came out in the second half and must have had four shots on goal in the first five minutes and scored from one of them and that put a whole new perspective on it.
“And once you are 2-0 down, it’s a very difficult position to find yourselves in."
