"A War of Attrition": Sadler Reacts as Walsall Grab a Late Point Against Bromley

Here is how the gaffer saw the Saddlers' League Two meeting with Bromley.
Walsall boss Mat Sadler has spoken of his side's battling display as they rebound from going a goal down to grab a late point against Bromley on Tuesday evening.

Taking the lead via Liam Gordon's third goal of the season, the Saddlers were initially pegged back by a Michael Cheek goal before Danny Imray put the visitors into the lead.

Earning a corner during the final minute of second-half stoppage time, defender David Okagbue opened his account for the season as he stabbed the ball over the line, via a deflection off Jamie Jellis, to snatch a late point.

Speaking to the assembled media shortly after full-time, Sadler said: "There wasn't much in the game and it was a really tough League Two battle and a war of attrition.

"A lot of the games that Bromley play in are like that and credit to them because they're all aligned in the way that they want to play.

"We found a way of not leaving here without something and sometimes those points, when you look back, you think, that was a tough point but what a character we've got to come through it.

"For Taylor to put the ball on the money in the way that he did and for us to get our noses back into the game with the last kick of the game.

"I can't fail but be disappointed that we don't win but pleased with the heart and the desire that the lads did to keep going."
