JENNISON Myrie-Williams' goal midway through the half gave Hereford United an interval lead in their League 1 clash against Yeovil Town at Huish Park.

Peter Gulacsi came out bravely at the feet of Gavin Tomlin to save in only the second minute.

But the keeper enjoyed a remarkable piece of fortune just a couple of minutes later.

The Hungarian under-19 international saw a shot from Paul Warne squirm through his hands before hitting the inside of a post and rebounding into the keeper’s arms.

Hereford enjoyed their share of the attacking in a lively opening with shots from Kris Taylor and Steve Guinan flying wide of the target.

Yeovil threatened again on 15 minutes when Jonathan Obika raced into the box and drew a good, diving save from Gulacsi with a fierce drive.

Two corners followed for the home side which were comfortably dealt with by the Hereford rearguard.

The Bulls stunned the home crowd by taking the lead on 27 minutes.

Taylor, who was often prominent on the left in the early stages, slipped a pass to Guinan.

The Bulls skipper drove in a cross to Myrie-Williams who brought the ball under control before hammering a shot past Chris Weale.

Yeovil tried to hit back but Keiran Murtagh’s shot and then Aaron Brown’s header went high over.

Andros Townsend’s shot was turned away well for a corner by Gulacsi who distinguished himself again three minutes before the break with a fine block from Murtagh.
