Gutting late goal condemns Hereford to defeat at Fylde

A late sucker punch has seen Hereford have a pointless trip to AFC Fylde. 

Ten minutes from half time, a quick break from Fylde saw Danny Ormerod beat Hereford's defence to a bouncing ball and beat Theo Richardson with his strike. 

Trailing at the break, Hereford created chances and had to deal with Fylde's attacking presence. But it was in the 67th minute when skipper Lewis Hudson controlled a long ball forward, teeing up Andy Williams to level the score. 

Having put up a fight worthy of a point, Hereford were punished in injury time for pushing for a winner as Fylde netted a second. 

Ormerod beat Preston as Hereford committed men forward, crossing to John Ustabasi to secure all three points.
