FC United were held to a frustrating goalless draw against newly promoted Rushall Olympic at Gigg Lane on Saturday afternoon in front of 2,445 supporters.
The Reds completely controlled the game from start to finish on Non-League Day 2011, having 14 shots on target compared to Rushall’s solitary first half effort.
But despite the dominance, United couldn’t find the all important goal and, just like Mickleover Sports last season, Olympic came with a game plan to defend deep, keep the Reds out at all costs and steal point. It worked. Just.
