Hereford face uphill task in second half

Poor defending is costing Hereford at Alfreton this evening as Aaron Downes' side trail 2-0 at the break.

The National League North tie got off to the worst possible start as the Reds were able to take advantage of a defensive error after just 11 seconds, with Lewis Salmon putting his side ahead.

Kai Lissimore added a second in the 36th minute after the Bulls failed to deal with a set piece.

While Hereford have created some chances, but being caught out in defence is costing them, with Nathan Newall also having a fierce effort denied by the cross bar after a long throw caused problems.
