5 minutes later Coalville had an opportunity to take the lead. Kieran Preston brought down the Coalville forward on the edge of the box. Former Gingerbread Nathan Watson stepped up to take but Preston saved well as the ball went down the middle and he was saving to his left.

The Gingerbreads stepped it up after the break, but the goal never came.

First Jordan Hempenstall's shot was pushed over the bar, Sam Purcicoe saw his header go over the bar, Lee Shaw saw had a shot cleared off the line, Jordan Hempenstall's powerful shot flashed over the bar, Lee Shaw saw another chance blocked, Curtis Burrows hit the post.

In the final minute Coalville attacked down the left and their shot was well blocked by Matt Baker, however it rebounded to the Coalville forward who put the ball back into the empty net.

The Gingerbreads hadn't given up and the best chance fell to substitute Jack McMenemy but his shot from 12 yards went over the bar.
