Match Report by St@tto

A poor performance from Harriers saw them crash out of the FA Trophy at the first hurdle.

Steve Burr took the opportunity to rest some senior players and give a chance to some of the players on the fringe of the squad to prove themselves; Aaron Brown was handed his debut while Jamie Grimes, Mickey Demetriou and Jack Byrne all started.

Bradford need just seven minutes to take the lead, though, as Harriers started sluggishly.  Paul Walker's low cross from the left was helped over the line by Grimes' attempted clearance.

Harriers had a fair amount of possession but didn't really threaten; Joe Lolley and Anthony Malbon both had good chances but weak shots were easy for John Lamb to deal with.  Sloppy defending cost Harriers a second goal; Chib Chalaka hooking in from close range after Harriers failed to deal with a corner from the right.

After the break Harriers had even more possession but still didn't look like getting back into the game.  After 66 minutes Callum Gittings' corner found the head of Chey Dunkley who saw his header tipped over the bar for another corner.  From that corner Bradford broke away quickly and Alex Davidson got free but wasted the opportunity shooting over the bar.

In the last minute Harriers pulled a goal back; Lee Vaughan got to the byline on the right and pulled the ball back to Michael Gash who headed in from close range.
