Despite the visitors being on top towards the end of the first half, Rushall Olympic hit back well and came out on top. Owen Parry and Callum Coyle both came close to putting the Pic’s ahead, with Coyle forcing a strong save from Singh.
Rushall finally got the lead they deserved in the 84th minute. Set-Piece specialist Alex Moore found the head of Mitchell Clark who rose above the rest to head home and put Rushall in front
Tamworth did equalize in the 91st minute when a knock on from a Tamworth defender found Daniel Creaney at the back post who scored a stunning acrobatic goal, firing into the bottom corner to equalize.
