Dartford strike late to save point

Harry Crawford struck an injury-time equaliser for Dartford as they drew 1-1 with Southport.

John Marsden looked to have scored the winner for the Sandgrounders three points before Crawford pounced.

The teams had started the day just outside the Vanarama Conference danger zone locked on 19 points but Southport grabbed the initiative.

Danny Hattersley had seen an early shot saved before Marsden fired Southport ahead a minute before the break when he found the bottom corner from inside the area.

But Crawford rescued a point for the hosts when he linked with Lee Noble and fired in fourth minutes into stoppage time.
