Aldershot Town 0-0 Bradford City
- Published
National League side Aldershot Town earned an FA Cup first round replay against League One's Bradford City after a goalless draw.
Aldershot started strongly with Jim Stevenson's low drive from 20 yards kept out by a diving Ben Williams.
Bradford's best chance of the first half fell to Billy Knott, whose shot was headed over by Omar Beckles.
City dominated the second half, with Tony McMahon twice slicing wide, but they were unable to secure a win.
Bradford City made it to the sixth round of the competition last year, knocking out Chelsea and Sunderland in their best FA Cup performance since 1976.
Aldershot Town boss Barry Smith told BBC Surrey:
"I was delighted with the commitment and I think the fans saw a team that were set up to go and attack, which we did in the first half and in the second half we had to be resilient.
"We work hard to get the players in the right position when we haven't got the ball and at the moment it's working. When the fans are here in their numbers it's a great stadium to play in and I thought the fans were rewarded today.
"I set up my teams to win games and we will go up there and give it a go."
