A goal by Kieran Petrie after 20 minutes proved the only one of a game in which Hill striker Ben Pope had to go in goal following an injury to Roco Rees. He pulled off some great saves to keep his team in it but they could not convert any of their chances.
The Hillians remain well-placed in the league – they’re eighth, just five points off the top five.
