Bromsgrove Rovers 2 Burnham Town 2

A goal in the last seconds of the game with only their secons hot on target stole a point for the visitors.

Bromsgrove Rovers are drawing 1-1 against Burnham in their Southern League Midlands game tonight.

A lively start saw Dexter Ravenhill flash a header wide before Findlay scored from just outside the box with a left foot shot.

On 12 minutes Findley went close again, seeing his shot turned round the post by goalkeeper McCarthy.

But on 29 minutes Burnham equalised quite luckily when Paul Coyne's 'shot' was going well wide but it landed in the path of Dennis Fennemore who diverted it in to the net.

Danny Campbell put Rovers ahead again on 61 minutes when he turned and cleverly shot low past the Burnham keeper and Bromsgrove continued to dominate the half.

But right in injury time and with literally three seconds remaining, a mix up in the Rovers defence saw keeper Karl Lewis fail to clear the ball and substitute Jordan Dowdican grabbed the equaliser.

Rovers: Karl Lewis, Jordan Street, Paul Lloyd, Rapinder GIll (c), Jemiah Richards, Marlon Walters, Cameron Jones, Luke Findley, Dexter Ravenhill, Danny Campbell, Danny Scheppel.

Substitues: Nathaniel Waite, Jack Connolly, Alex Woodhouse (for Darby 62),Luke Darby (for Lloyd 15), Darren Grocutt
