City salvage a draw in FA Trophy

Truro City FC

Truro City staged a Lazarus-like FA Trophy comeback to salvage a replay against Chesham United.

City trailed 3-0 before top scorer Stewart Yetton netted two, including their last-minute equaliser, to earn the Tigers a Tuesday night replay.

Truro were 2-0 down at half time and, despite boss Sean McCarthy's rant, went further behind after the break through Chesham captain Andy Keepence.

But Sam Ledger's own goal got City back into the game before Yetton's double.

"I lost my rag a little big at half time if I'm honest,," Truro manager Sean McCarthy told BBC Radio Cornwall.

"That wasn't us out there, and I know we're better than that,.

"We got a reaction in the second half.

"We didn't have the luck in the first half and we didn't deserve it, but second half we did and we deserved it and got a reply.

"It's a game we could probably do without but we're going to go up there now and have a go at them because we're better than that."
