Dimi Mitov, on his return to The Valley, makes the catch from Lee's free-kick

Stockers brings out a backheel from his trick bag, Leko drives down the wing to win a corner ...

Desperate stuff.

Cambridge should've scored there. Poor pass from Famewo.

23' Chance for Cambridge as Brophy's shot deflects into the path of Ironside who heads wide from close range. #cafc 0 #CamUTD 0

This is fast becoming a game of hitting the brick wall that is Cambridge defence, they are parking the bus and making very quick counter attacks if the opportunity arises, very scrappy as a result, but we are on top at the moment

We’ve no time on the ball. Cambridge keep putting their oar in.

We're very flat & they've had the better chances.
