KEY MOMENTS
TT = Thetford Town
BT = Bury Town
10' - BT - A stinging shot from the edge of the box by the No.7 is pushed wide of the goal for a corner.
34' - BT - The No.11 gets in on goal and shoots, but keeper Tom Smith gets down low to not only save the strike, but secure the loose ball.
35' - BT - Great play from Cemal Ramadan sees him jinking through the Thetford box from the left, he hits a shot towards the bottom left hand corner of the goal, but Tom Smith is equal to it.
36' - TT - GOAL (1-0) - From nowhere, Haylett hits a strike from 25 yards out, and it tucks into the net just inside the post, the keeper not quite able to get across in time, what a hit!
50' - TT - A brilliant run from Haylett down the right wing sees him drive into the box, the ball squared into the middle is good and a reaction shot from Avis looks like it is in, but it crashes into the post and out, so close to a 2nd from Thetford.
61' - TT - Diggens bursts towards the box, and plays a 1-2 to set him free, his strike is curling into the top left corner, but keeper gets an outstretched glove onto the ball, and Davies is unable to control the follow-up.
63' - BT - A long ball and a great run from the No.7 sees him heading through, but Tom Smith is out fast and brilliantly takes command of the ball on the edge of his area, great piece of keeping.
69' - BT - The No.10 hits a decent strike from 20yards out, it heads wide of the far post, but has Tom Smith worried for a moment.
75' - TT - Some brilliant work and pressurising from Elliot Smith sees him steal the ball deep in the Bury half, he strides forwards with the ball and having sucked in the on-rushing keeper he squares to the supporting Avis, and with the net gaping in front of him, his effort from outside the box flies painfully wide, so close to sealing the result.
75' - BT - Immediately up the other end, the No.10 flashes in a venomous strike from outside the box, and due the award of the corner, it must have just been tipped just over the bar by Tom Smith, it all happened too fast to see such was the pace on the ball.
