For Burton, it was not only a convincing way to reach the FA Cup fourth round but also an emphatic way to end a three-game losing run.<\/p>\n
The hosts started brightly and carved out a number of chances in the first half hour, with Regan Booty twice testing Brewers goalkeeper Kamil Dudek.<\/p>\n
But it was the visitors who took the lead against the run of play, courtesy of Lofthouse’s fine first-time finish at the end of well-worked team move that saw Adom sweep an inviting ball into the box for the defender to latch on to.<\/p>\n
Adom was unfortunate not score on his debut, as his header from Jack Armer’s cross was bundled into his own net by O’Connell after desperate attempts to clear the danger on the line.<\/p>\n
Boreham Wood pressed for a way back into the game after the interval but were limited to few real chances before Burton put the result beyond doubt with three second-half goals against the third-placed National League side.<\/p>\n
Williams had a part to play in two of them, with Curd’s inability to deal with his free-kick allowing Tavares to put Burton 3-0 up before Williams made it four himself with a composed finish after meeting a long ball from Terence Vancooten.<\/p>\n
McKiernan then marked his return from injury and a memorable afternoon with a stoppage-time strike to complete the five-nil scoreline.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"For Burton, it was not only a convincing way to reach the FA Cup fourth round but also…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":687924,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[748,393,4884,12,1144,712,16,15,1764],"class_list":{"0":"post-687923","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-news","8":"tag-britain","9":"tag-england","10":"tag-great-britain","11":"tag-news","12":"tag-northern-ireland","13":"tag-scotland","14":"tag-uk","15":"tag-united-kingdom","16":"tag-wales"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115873878112476214","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/687923","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=687923"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/687923\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/687924"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=687923"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=687923"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=687923"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
