Bromley 0-0 Cambridge
Cambridge's emergency keeper Jack Walton does well to deny an opening shot from Ben Thompson before his team-mate follows up with an important block for the next shot.
Byron Webster is the last man standing for Bromley but the panic sets in and his connection isn't great, lacking pace and precision to wander towards the defender, who deflects to his keeper.
Amazing that nothing went in.

A really decent effort and a lightning counter-attack from Cambridge United.
Louis Appere does well and it was a rasping drive in the end from Ben Knight.
Bromley 0-0 Cambridge
Better from Cambridge.
They work the ball through the space until it finds Ben Knight, who rifles it towards goal but Bromley keeper Grant Smith denies him.

You can see why Bromley have won so many games and why they are top of the table.
Cambridge United haven't had a sniff in this second half.
Just the one foray towards goal with Dominic Ball unable to retain control of the ball as he wanted.
Peterborough 1-3 Port Vale
They're into the final 10 minutes at the Weston Homes Community Stadium.
A night to forget for Peterborough who look set to remain four points above the drop zone.
Port Vale will move 12 points from the safety line with five matches left. They couldn't, could they?!
Bromley 0-0 Cambridge
Ben Thompson has to take a seat after the Bromley midfielder takes a finger to the eye.
There's a little pause in play as he's seen to.
Cambridge will take this chance to reset after some sustained Bromley pressure.

Neither side wants to make a mistake.
So much is riding on it for both sides. It is really intense.
It is potentially going to come down to a set-piece situation.

Mitch Pinnock delivers another promising free-kick into the box for Bromley but when Zech Medley runs in to make the jump, he nods it high towards the sky.
It's got boss Andy Woodman looking frustrated in the stands.
This game really deserves a goal and he's hoping it will be his side to deliver.

It is a worry for Cambridge United striker Shayne Lavery.
You just got a sense that when the ball was lifted into his path, he wasn't going 100% for it.
You hope that it is precautionary. Time will tell, we have to keep our fingers crossed.
Bromley 0-0 Cambridge
A sad sight for the away support.
Shayne Lavery is forced off with an injury and looks desolate as he takes a seat on the bench.
His hamstring has plagued him, seeing him on the side lines in two separate spells this season.
Louis Appere is on to replace him.
Bromley 0-0 Cambridge
The free-kick is delivered and finds a white shirt in the box but Cambridge's James Gibbons is there to provide a block before it sneaks into the net.
Bromley 0-0 Cambridge
Cambridge captain Dominic Ball struggles to win back possession and eventually commits a late tackle to earn himself the first yellow card of the night.
Perhaps more worryingly for him, it also offers up a free-kick in a good position for the hosts too...
Peterborough 1-3 Port Vale

What a game!
Two top-tier goals from Port Vale. A Peterborough team that have bossed possession.
A Vale team that can't win a game all season, bossing this one.
They hadn't scored in this fixture since 2016 and they've got three in one night.
Bromley 0-0 Cambridge
Taken a breath? Fetched a cuppa? Ready for part two?
You best be because we are back under way to see if this game has a winner in store.
Remember, if Bromley win, they're promoted to League One.

It's like watching somebody throw darts. Treble 20!
It's an identical position, almost, for Ethon Archer with the free-kick.
He's bent it so nonchalantly under the bar. The keeper has stood there motionless.
It's exceptional bit of skill. Don't adjust your sets!
Peterborough 1-3 Port Vale
Port Vale have just gone 3-1 up at Peterborough thanks to another stunning free-kick from Ethon Archer.
25 yards out, straight into the top corner.
It's a long way back for Posh now with an hour on the clock.
HT: Bromley 0-0 Cambridge
Bromley should have been promoted ages ago. It's like they want to drag it out. Maybe that is great business to sell tickets. Genius.

Port Vale haven't been in the ascendancy as much.
Peterborough have been patient, but they haven't changed from the method that they play.
They haven't bowed to the pressure from the fans to go all-out on the attack.
Peterborough 1-2 Port Vale
They're about 10 minutes into the second half in the 19:45 BST kick-off in League One.
Peterborough will still have a game in hand on the sides below them but they've hit a really iffy patch of form at the wrong time.
Port Vale have seen an upturn in their results, but too late to save their season.

Ordinarily, to be 0-0 at half-time away at the league leaders, you would be happy.
But he'll be kicking himself, Neil Harris, given the opportunities that Cambridge United have created.
He will have one or two messages to get across, the main one being "let's see more in front of goal".

This will be Bromley’s third match as a Football League side against Cambridge United, drawing 3-3 in the EFL Trophy in September 2024, before losing the reverse fixture in League Two 2-1 back in October.
Cambridge United have failed to win any of their last six away league games against sides from London (D2 L4), losing their last three in succession. They last endured a longer losing Football League run in the capital between January 1998 and September 1999 (L5).
Bromley remain unbeaten across their 21 home League Two matches so far this season (W13 D8), the only other League Two side to remain unbeaten across a campaign at home since the EFL rebrand of 2004-05 was Shrewsbury Town in 2011-12 (W18 D5).
Cambridge have lost just two of their last 14 away league games (W6 D6), though their last did come in London against Barnet in late March (0-1).
