Exeter, who had won their previous three games, took the lead early on when Rob Edwards smashed a free-kick into the top corner from 25 yards.

Oliver Allen scored from close range to level and after Edwards hit the bar, Allen slotted in a penalty after Daniel Seaborne brought down Jon-Paul Pittman.

But Exeter equalised 10 minutes from time when Moxey struck from 25 yards to keep them four points ahead of sixth.
