REPORT: Boreham Wood 1 Stanley 1 (Accrington Stanley)

Accrington Stanley and National League side Boreham Wood will have it all to do again after a 1-1 draw in the Emirates FA Cup Third Round at Meadow Park.

It was the Everton loan defender’s third goal of the campaign. Chances were limited in the first half with Pressley doing well on his debut while the Reds defence limited Boreham Wood and Stanley’s goal was the only shot on target in the first 45 minutes. The Reds started well and raced ahead on six minutes when a long throw from Tommy Leigh was not cleared by the Wood defence and Ryan Astley was there to stroke the ball into the bottom corner of the net.

Stoppage time soon came with the Wood desperate to seal their upset and score a late winner. Ilesanmi delivered a threatening cross into the middle from deep which was met by Ndlovu, who rose above everyone else to power a header home before producing an even better knee slide in front of the jubilant North Bank. Nathan Ashmore bowled it out to Dennon Lewis who sprinted the length of the pitch as he looked to start a counter attack, with Femi Ilesanmi eventually delivering a dangerous ball into the box. Stanley maintained control for much of the half though and subdued their opponents throughout, but despite this they still struggled to produce many more openings. The Wood did battle as they searched for an equaliser though, forcing a couple of corners in their pursuit. Having already overcome a Bristol Rovers side who currently sit nine places above Stanley in the League One table, the Wood were aware they are capable of causing a cup upset not least after their exploits last season.
