Forest Green scored two late goals as they fought back from 2-0 behind to gain a point at Rushden & Diamonds.

Ryan Charles fired the hosts in front with a shot from 30 yards, before he doubled the advantage with a tap-in.

But Forest Green pulled one back when top scorer Reece Styche shot into the corner after fine play from Ross Dyer.

Steve Davies grabbed a dramatic equaliser for the visitors with only two minutes left, shooting low into the net after another pass from Dyer.
