A later kick off at 3.00pm (2.00pm usual in women’s football) saw Hereford (tier 7) take on Boldmere ( tier 4) at Church Road in the FA Womens Cup on an artificial pitch.
For the first 45 minutes Hereford defended deep, the defence was under constant pressure.
Midway through the first half a good strike from a central position on the edge of the box beat Hannah Pritchard in goal.
HT Boldmere 1-0 Hereford
Second half the Mikes began in the same attacking form as the first, with the striker going down in the box although there appeared to be very little contact.
The resulting penalty was converted.
Boldmere 2-0 Hereford
Hereford made several substitutions late in the game and looked more attacking but it was Boldmere who again found the net from a good strike this time from well outside the box.
Full Time
Boldmere 3-0 Hereford
The FA cup run may be over but Hereford were no way out classed, they looked disciplined and kept to the game plan impeccably.
