Bromley 3 Cambridge City 1

Bromley made it maximum points from their Easter period with a comfortable victory at home to Cambridge City on Bank Holiday Monday.

Simon Osborn’s side stunned Blue Square South leaders Eastbourne on Saturday and maintained their play-off charge with a 3-1 success against City.

Midfielder Karl Beckford, on loan from AFC Wimbledon, opened the scoring on 29 minutes with a searing low drive from the right edge of the box.

Bromley looked firmly in control but Cambridge were on terms only eight minutes later when Lee Roache equalised.

In windy conditions it remained nip-and-tuck after the break until Bromley, buoyed by their weekend result, upped the tempo in the final 20 minutes.

Gareth Williams’ impressive dribble took him clean through the City defence and when his strike was parried by the keeper, Nic McDonnell was on hand to convert the rebound despite the visitors’ claims for offside.

Bromley sealed the victory two minutes from time when Danny Hockton took advantage of a goalkeeping error to nod home at the far post.
