The hosts took the lead after just eight minutes when Erkan Okay brought down Amjad Iqbal in the box and Stephen Downes slotted home his spot-kick.

However, Nathaniel Knight-Percival headed in Adrian Cambridge's corner and Antonio Murray netted from close range.

Iqbal was shown his second yellow for a foul on Rob Nightingale and after Mark Hotte forced a fine save from Histon's Danny Naisbitt, Murray finished neatly.
