Half-Time Report: Kidderminster Harriers level with Gateshead

Kidderminster Harriers and Gateshead are on level terms at the break after a competitive first 45 minutes at Aggborough.

Kidderminster striker Nathan Blissett had the opening chance of the match in the third minute, but after combining with Craig Reid, he could only send his effort over the crossbar.

Cheyenne Dunkley was the next Harriers man to come close to netting the first goal of the afternoon when he met a Kevin Nicholson corner, but his header cleared Adam Bartlett's goal.

Gateshead responded through Jon Shaw, who had a low strike saved by Danny Lewis, before JJ O'Donnell fired a free kick wide of the goalkeeper's post.

Kidderminster ended the half on the front foot, but after Jamie Grimes had seen a shot blocked, Nicholson struck the rebound marginally over the bar to ensure that the two teams went into the break on level terms.
