Newport County striker Mark Harris celebrates scoring his first goal for the Exiles

Exeter City moved top of League Two despite being pegged back by Newport County at St James Park.

Jayden Stockley gave the hosts the lead after 21 minutes, smartly heading the ball past Joe Day from a Jake Taylor cross.

The visitors pushed for an equaliser and were rewarded for their efforts with 10 minutes remaining when Cardiff City loanee Mark Harris rifled home.

Neither team could find a late winner as both had to settle for a point.
