St James Park.
Saturday 24 February 2024 17:48, UK
Exeter and Fleetwood shared the spoils in a 1-1 League One draw at St James Park that did little to help either side in their battle to avoid relegation.
The hosts started well with Mo Eisa curling a shot just over the crossbar.
They took the lead after 24 minutes when a nice move down the left ended with Reece Cole cutting the ball back to Vince Harper to tap in for his first goal for the club.
The home side were in complete control with Fleetwood's first effort at goal coming after 42 minutes, when Ben Heneghan headed over from close range.
Furious Fleetwood boss Charlie Adam made a quadruple change at the break and the Cod Army looked much better with Carl Johnston forcing Vili Sinisalo into a smart save.
