Dartford 2 St Albans 2
Comments |
Dartford bounced back from Saturday's disappointing defeat at
Staines with an epic 2-2 draw with Blue Square Bet South relegation
scrappers St Albans at Princes Park on Tuesday night.
Charlie Sheringham went close to an opener for Tony Burman's
side (pictured), heading Lee Noble's cross against the post
before the striker's low shot was spilled by Saints
keeper Paul Bastock, only for Danny Harris to see his subsequent
tap-in ruled out for offside.
The visitors took the lead against the run of play on 33 minutes
when slack defending allowed Inih Effiong to slam in off the post
from close range, however the hosts levelled within two minutes
when Noble’s free-kick caused mayhem in the box and Sheringham was
able to finish from four yards.
Sheringham hit the underside of the bar before half-time, with
Bastock superbly blocking Tom Bonner's follow-up header, but
Sheringham gave the Darts the lead six minutes after the break from
close range after being found by Lee Burns after a long-ball
forward.
This time it was the visitors who replied within two minutes
when Ollie Kelly’s diving header found the corner before James
White saw red for the hosts for two soft bookings around the
hour.
Effiong hit the bar with a venomous drive late-on before Darts
substitute Jon Main was felled by Bastock in the box as he battled
to get on the end of a huge clearance from Andy Young.
The foul handed another sub, Ryan Hayes, the chance to win
the game in the 92nd minute from the spot, only for his tame
penalty to ome back off the post.
