It was a stalemate at Imber Court as neither side could find the back of the net.

The closest either team came to scoring came as early as the 3rd minute when Bradley Hudson-Odoi struck the crossbar from the edge of the penalty area.

Xavier Vidal brought a good low save out of Stuart Searle in the home goal with a well struck free kick after 5 minutes but there were few chances of note as both sides failed to penetrate strong defences.

The game's next real chance came on 35 minutes as Ethan Pinnock just failed to get on the end of a corner and, when the ball was recycled, Dean McDonald produced a back heel inside the area that Bagasan Graham latched on to but he was denied by Searle.

Half Time 0-0

The second half opened with a flurry of attacks as 2 minutes in Jordan Hibbert did well to hook the ball away from in front of the line. Dulwich then went straight down the other end and a cross from Nyren Clunis was sliced by Will Salmon and Searle had to produce a fine tip over to prevent an own goal.

It was Clunis who set up a 52nd minute chance as his driven cross somehow eluded both Graham & McDonald as they slid in on the edge of the six yard box.

At the other end a free kick from Charlie Collins saw Michael Charles put a good chance wide at the far post.

Just past the hour Xavier Vidal played a fine ball out to Nyren Clunis whose cross was headed goalwards by Bagasan Graham. A slight deflection had Searle scrambling and he was relieved to see the ball go inches wide.

Bagasan Graham then had another chance as good interplay opened up the home defence but he fired wide when he should have at least worked the keeper.

Collins had a shot that Oshane Brown got down well to save and Kershaney Samuels shot wide as chances came and went.

A late flurry from Dulwich saw Frazer Shaw have a couple of good crosses from the left which were well defended. Dulwich should have had a free kick right on the edge of the penalty area as Matteo Candolini was taken out but he allowed play to continue and the attack broke down.

Full Time 0-0
