Braintree Town 0 Bromley 2 - BSS - 13/11/2010
Bromley took their place back at the top of the table after an impressive display of solid defending, hard working midfield and good finishing on the break.
Braintree started the game on top, but despite creating several chances they failed to really trouble Keeper Wes Foderingham. Guy, Reason & Lechmere were all off target when well placed, while Bromley had a couple of chances on the break but Harrison Dunk & Salifou Ibrahima both missed. Late in the David Graves went off injured and was replaced by Wes Daly with Tutu Henriques dropping in at right back.
The second half saw Braintree continue to pump long balls into the box, but Foderingham was equal to the task as were both his centre backs. After an early spell of pressure Bromley took a surprise lead when Tony Finn broke down the right and his deep cross was headed back into the area by Warren McBean for Salifou Ibrahima to head home on 52mins. Braintree continued to press, but Bromley held firm Davis missing the home sides best chance when he fired wide from close range. McBean was denied twice by last ditched tackles as The Ravens continued to look dangerous on the break. Late on The Iron had a series of corners which Foderingham, Sobers & Scarborough dealt with immaculately before Bromley broke once more and sealed the victory when Finn burst out of defence and ran the length of the pitch before slotting the ball past McDonald for 2-0 in injury time.
This was an impressive win for Mark Goldberg's side at the league leaders who had only conceded 4 goals at Cressing Road before today's game.
