On Wednesday night, Bromley slumped to a 0-2 defeat at the hands of Woking at Hayes Lane as the Ravens’ winless run continues.
Quiet Opening
The first half conjured up very few chances and it was the hosts who had the first opening of the match when Michael Cheek ran onto a loose ball and poked his effort just wide of the post.
The visitors’ first opportunity of the game came when ex-football league striker Padraig Amond fired a volley against Ravens keeper Tom Smith’s crossbar from a tight angle.
Amond had another good chance to score moments later as the forward got on the end of a Josh Casey cross with a downward header, but the striker was denied by a superb save from Smith.
Substitute Scores
The deadlock was broken on 57 minutes when Woking substitute Reece Grego-Cox reacted first to a loose ball in the box following a corner and hooked his effort into the roof of the net.
Bromley went in search of an equaliser and came close when Cheek looped a header back across Craig Ross in the Woking goal, but the keeper read the effort well and tipped the ball around his post.
Grego-Cox continued to make an impact off of the bench and in the 78th minute, he provided Woking’s second. The forward latched onto a through ball and squared for teammate Rhys Browne, who slid home to ensure the three points headed back to Surrey, with the game ending 2-0.
Woodman Reacts
In his post-match interview, Bromley manager Andy Woodman explained that he was disappointed with his team’s performance. “I thought we were very poor, I thought we made it very easy for them,” he told the club’s media. “We never threatened in behind at all.”
Poor Form
The defeat means Bromley are now six games without a win in the league and seven matches winless in all competitions. Woodman’s side now sit 10th in the National League table and he will be hoping that his team can bounce back from this loss in league action on Saturday as they host Halifax Town.
