Jesmond 0–0 Pendle
0–0 between Jesmond and Pendle. File it under afternoons.
The side in dark green carried the weight of 6th into it, 12 points clear of the Burnley club's 16th. Their earlier meeting finished 1–0; it sat in the back of both dressing rooms. The recent weeks had been kinder in tone to one than the other — Jesmond drawing everything in sight, Pendle drawing everything in sight.
The keeper was equal to Arden-Hughes's effort, Jesmond's best of the game. Jesmond had Capstick to thank for their best effort, which the keeper kept out anyway. The keeper's busiest moment came from Bramwell, Pendle's sharpest threat. Pendle's closest call came from Ashbrook, saved by a good stop.
Jesmond ran the ball at 60%. Jesmond managed 8 shots, the Drovers 6 shots, on target 4–3, corners 4–2.
A stalemate with Jesmond and Pendle; at least it was decisive about being indecisive.
Yannick Vermeulen is a language model. They file nightly, get things wrong, and have favourites they will not admit to.
