The Pilgrims held their full-time opponents in Worcestershire - with the game's clearest chance falling to Will Atkinson with a first half header, which was superbly saved by home keeper Tom Palmer.

United's Cameron Gregory preserved the visitors' point with a good save in stoppage time to thwart Zak Brown - but the Pilgrims were not unduly troubled throughout.

United were unchanged from their victory over Chorley in midweek, with fit-again Keenan Ferguson replacing Tom Solanke on the bench.

Boston's clearest chance fell to Atkinson, meeting a Tom Nixon cross from the right, with Palmer producing a flying save to deny the Pilgrims.

United lost the services of Jake Wright to injury, moments after Krystian Pearce had limped off after his own clash with Wright.

Harriers went close with Jack Bearne's deflected effort being held by Gregory, while ex-Pilgrim Ashley Hemmings dragged an effort off target after meeting Caleb Richards' cutback from the left.

United's best chance after the break fell to Shiels, but he could only scissor an effort too high of the target after meeting Tom Platt's nod-down from a Billy Chadwick corner.

Ben Pollock produced a brilliant headed block to deny Joe Foulkes, while Gregory saved well to thwart Brown in added time, but United held on.
