Yeovil Town’s struggle to find the back of the net continued as they were forced to settle for a goalless draw against Morecambe at the Mazuma Mobile Stadium in their Enterprise National League clash.
Morecambe goalkeeper Jamal Blackman was the standout performer, making a crucial late penalty save to deny Yeovil the chance to snatch victory. The Shrimps, eager to build on their recent win over Brackley, controlled the first half but could not convert their chances. Jack Nolan’s free-kick tested Yeovil’s keeper Jed Ward, who saved comfortably, while Gwion Edwards' rebound effort went over the bar.
Yeovil showed more initiative in the second half, creating a significant opportunity in the 80th minute when Tahvon Campbell was brought down in the box. However, Blackman demonstrated excellent reflexes, diving full stretch to keep the Glovers at bay. In stoppage time, Morecambe came close to clinching the win, but Ludwig Francillette’s header from Nolan’s cross drifted wide, leaving both teams to share the spoils.
