Bury Town were forced to give up tenth spot to Brentwood Town after another poor result.
Bury could have gone ahead in the first minute when Cemal Ramadan saw his low shot across goal which was heading inside the far post saved by a strong hand from Melvin Minter. On 5 minutes Bryan Ifeanyi saw his effort for Brentwood cleared off the line by Jed Wigley. On 18 minutes Bryan Ifeanyi twisted and turned his way into the Bury box but his shot was blocked. Bury went on the attack on 21 minutes but Charley Barker got too much on his strike and the ball sailed high over the bar. Brentwood attacked in numbers of 24 minutes and it paid off as they got themselves in front with Solomon Ogunwomoju finding the back of the net. Cemal Ramadan got himself into the box on 31 minutes but again Melvin Minter saved his shot. On 40 minutes Ross Wall flicked the ball over the Bury defence and into the box hoping to find a teammate but Bury keeper Charlie Woods was out quick to stop the move. Brentwood went close to scoring a second goal on 41 minutes when Rob Clark sent a ball over to Bryan Ifeanyi who got into the box and from a wide angle his shot hit the bar. Bury tried a long ball up field on 42 minutes with Charley Barker sending a hopeful ball up to Cemal Ramadan but Melvin Minter read the ball well and was out fast to beat Ramadan to the ball.

Second half Bury continued to struggle to find a response to going behind as they searched for a goal. On 50 minutes Bryan Ifeanyi went charging up the pitch and got to the Bury penalty area before he was stopped dead by Jed Wigley and the chance was gone. Another Brentwood attack on 53 minutes saw George Craddock play a great ball out to Solomon Ogunwomoju but his touch let him down as the ball ran free. Solomon Ogunwomoju turned provider on 55 minutes as he got into the box and laid the ball back to George Craddock on the edge of the box but his shot had no power as Charlie Woods gathered the ball. Connor Hogan was next to have a go at Bury on 58 minutes when he powered forward into the box but was shut down by two defenders before he could get his shot away. Jed Wigley put a deep cross into the box for Bury on 68 minutes looking for Joe White at the far post but the keeper made the catch. Brentwood kept probing forward but had to wait until deep into injury time to double their lead. With Bury committing players forward Flavio Jumo found himself free and in acres of space with an open goal to aim at and he did not disappoint as he fired his shot home. The win lifts Brentwood above Bury who had held tenth spot for quite a while but the run of poor results has given the teams below them chance to catch up.
