Steve Metcalf then threw the home side a lifeline with an own goal, and with seven minutes left Dane Luchford (pictured) fired home the equaliser at the far post.

Whitstable Town also drew 2-2 at Corinthian Casuals. The home side led 1-0 at the break through a 33rd-minute Glenn Boosey penalty, but Ian Pulman equalised seven minutes after the restart.

Boosey then converted his second spot kick with 16 minutes left, only for Pulman to set up Dan Wisker five minutes later for Whitstable's point-saver.

Sittingbourne moved up to sixth place in the table with a 2-0 success at Godalming.

Gary Abbott's side were in front after just two minutes, through Hicham Akhazzan, and Tom Bradbrook made it 2-0 10 minutes later.

Godalming missed a penalty early in the second half and the Brickies were then content to hang on to what they had got for the remainder of the game.

Ramsgate and Chatham both suffered 3-1 defeats against Burgess Hill and Bognor Regis respectively.

The Rams conceded a 16th-minute own goal through Warren Schulz and although the latter quickly made amends with an equaliser two minutes later, Burgess Hill scored twice more without reply through Lloyd Cotton and Steve Harper.

Ramsgate's fate was sealed when Mitchell Sherwood missed a late penalty.

Chatham slipped to their third successive defeat at Bognor Regis, with the home side 3-0 up after 75 minutes before substitute Uche Ibemere pulled a goal back for the Chats.
