They stay two points above Maidenhead in seventh after this goalless draw. Momentum continued to swing, with Van Stappershoef making a big save from Samuel Adenola, the Dutch stopper just getting his fingertips to the strike to tip over in the seventh minute. Both teams came out for the second half feeling the three points were within their grasp, but neither were clinical enough to take their chances. But the Magpies ran out of steam as an attacking force after that and Hemel came on strong in the final 25 minutes. The result keeps the Magpies eighth in the table, two points behind Hemel in seventh, however, both sides closed the gap on Horsham in sixth and Torquay in fifth who both suffered defeats.
