Fleetwood 2-2 Exeter: Pierce Sweeney nets stoppage-time equaliser
Saturday 1 April 2023 18:20, UK
Pierce Sweeney scored a dramatic stoppage-time equaliser as Exeter earned a 2-2 League One draw at Fleetwood.
The Grecians are still searching for a first away win since January, but Sweeney's second goal for the club ensured the trip home was worthwhile with a point.
Jack Marriott had put the hosts on course for a third-straight victory before the defender's desperately late leveller.
Jay Lynch produced a brilliant early save to keep out Joshua Key's point-blank header.
Marriott opened the scoring in the 19th minute as he beat his marker to fire the ball into the bottom-left corner.
