Morecambe   2 - 2   Hereford

Hereford's Marc Pugh rifled home in the final minute to crown a fine individual performance and deny Morecambe victory.

The 22-year-old had opened the scoring with a long-range effort after his side had found themselves pinned back with Ian Craney and Phil Jevons going close.

Craig Stanley levelled against his old club with a fine drive and Stewart Drummond met a cross from Mark Duffy to move the hosts ahead.

But Pugh's late strike ensured the Bulls emerged with a point.


Hereford United manager John Trewick told BBC Hereford and Worcester:
"If we had played more sensibly up to half-time when we took the lead it might have been different.

"Going in 1-0 at half-time would have given us a real lift and we were a little bit inexperienced and silly playing the way we did after we scored.

"I thought we should have just killed the game a little bit, run down the clock to half-time and then started again in the second half, but we'll learn from that."
