Stourbridge saved by late spot-kick
A last-gasp penalty rescued a point for Stourbridge from their Southern Central Premier clash with Barwell.
Chay Tilt stepped up to net from 12 yards in second half injury time as the Glassboys earned a 1-1 draw to put Saturday’s 6-1 thumping by Peterborough Sports behind them.

Tolani Omotola could have doubled the advantage on the hour but his close-range header was kept out by keeper Charlie Price.
Stour pressed for most of the second half and they got the equaliser they deserved in the dying seconds with Tilt firing in from the penalty spot.
