Under Control Most of the Time says Smith

Hereford United's Ben Smith thought the Bulls had been good value for their point last night at stadium mk.

"Whilst we were under pressure it didn't feel like we were kicking balls off the line every couple of minutes," Smith told BBC Hereford and Worcester.

"They flashed a few good balls across the box and we were obviously lucky with the one that hit Toumani.

"I wouldn't say we were comfortable but we had the situation under control most of the time."

As regards the result Smith said:

"This could be the difference between an automatic spot and the play-offs."

"We want our season to finish on May 3 rather than drag on for a fortnight through the play-offs. This point could be the one that makes the difference in terms of automatic promotion for us.

"We targeted between four and five points from the three games this week and we've already banked four.

"And although we've got Peterborough next we have improved a lot since we last met them and will be heading into it confident.

"It was a cracking result against Paul Ince's men and we are delighted with a point. We were under a lot of pressure but it wasn't like we were kicking them off the line."
