Blues held to a goalless draw by Truro

The Blues looked to maintain their place at the top of the league as they faced cornish rivals Truro city.

Truro caused some early challenges for their promotion pushing opposition with their aerial threats from inside the 18 yard box that were placed off target.

Liam Beach was called into action to parry a close range shot after the Blues failed to cut out a through ball in behind as they waited for the offside flag that was never raised.

The quiet met side failed to execute their first real opportunity on the half time mark after George Frith used his vision to thread Jasper Mather through who forced Jamie Hamon off his line to kill off the chance.

The visitors keeper sprung into action to keep his Truro side in the the game once again after a well timed cross by Wickham met the head of the captain Ollie Robinson to prompt the finger tip save of Hamon.

The Blues skipper stepped in once again to deny Truro talisman Andrew Neal from close range with a last ditch tackle to sweep the ball away from danger.

Truro let slip another vital opportunity after their captain Jamie Richards got on the end of a well delivered free kick only to guide the ball over the bar.

The visitors returned back home with a point as the home side were provided with an even tougher task off competing with the title as they come closer to cementing their place in the play off places.
