Kettering 1-1 Barrow

Barrow were denied their first away success of the season as Kettering hit back to grab a well-deserved draw.

The visitors were on course to end a four-game winless run when Nick Chadwick turned home Paul Rutherford's pin-point cross after 18 minutes.

Kettering, who have won just three home games all season, went close to equalising through Liam McDonald

And Luke O'Neill earned the Poppies a point when he lashed the ball home from 20 yards after the break.

A run of four matches without defeat has seen Marcus Law's side pull eight points clear of the relegation zone but Barrow remain in danger, just one place away from the bottom four but only on goal difference.
