Match Report: Yeovil Town v Wealdstone

Yeovil Town claimed their 13th draw of the season as they were held 0-0 by Wealdstone at Huish Park last night. Yeovil played some neat football during the first half, however they were reduced to 10 men early in the second half when Owen Bevan was shown a straight red for a rash challenge. Yeovil were still able to play well with 10 men, but couldn't find a winning goal.

Mark Cooper made two changes to the side that beat Dagenham & Redbridge at the weekend. Jack Clarke was dropped to the bench while Jamie Reckord was dropped. Lawson D'Ath and Edwin Agbaje took a place in the starting XI.

Yeovil lined up in a 4-5-1 formation with Edwin Agbaje, Josh Staunton, Owen Bevan and Morgan Williams in front of Grant Smith. Andrew Oluwabori, Lawson D'Ath, Matt Worthington, Charlie Cooper and Jordan Young were in midfield while Jordan Maguire-Drew lead the attack.

On the bench was Ben Richards-Everton, Alex Fisher, Chiori Johnson, Charlie Wakefield and Jack Clarke.

Yeovil kicked off towards the home end.

The first half saw very few chances for either side, but Yeovil were playing the better football. The home side pressed their opponents well, and were able to play some nice flowing football but the end product just wasn't there.

Wealdstone had to make their first substitution on 39 minutes as Sam Habergham had to be replaced by Dom Hutchinson.

Half Time: Yeovil Town 0-0 Wealdstone

Four minutes into the second half Yeovil made their first substitution as Jordan Young was replaced by Alex Fisher.

On 54 minutes Yeovil were reduced to 10 men when Owen Bevan was shown a straight red card for a strong challenge.

Yeovil almost fell behind shortly after when a cross from the left flashed across the goal but luckily nobody was there to tap the ball in.

Yeovil made their second substitution on 64 minutes when Jordan Maguire-Drew was replaced by Ben Richards-Everton.

With a man advantage the away side were able to assert themselves into the game and prevent Yeovil from playing as well as they did in the first half. Yeovil were still trying their best to get forward, but naturally it was difficult for them.

On 71 minutes both sides made substitutions as Charlie Cooper was replaced by Charlie Wakefield while Micah Obiero was replaced by Max Kretzschmar.

With 10 minutes left to play Grant Smith produced a fantastic save to keep the scores level when a shot at the near post was pushed onto the post and away to safety.

Wealdstone made their final substitution on 82 minutes when Tarryn Allarakhia was replaced by Olufela Olomola.

4 minutes of time was added on and the points were shared.

Full Time: Yeovil Town 0-0 Wealdstone

Although it was a 0-0 draw the game wasn't dull to watch. The biggest issue during the game was Yeovils inability to threaten the Wealdstone goal. Too many times we seemed to be afraid to shoot and this meant that any neat bit of football just didn't go anywhere.
