EVESHAM United were made to pay for missed chances in a 1-1 home draw with King's Lynn in the Southern League Premier Division.

Daniel Hammond stabbed in an equaliser for the visitors with just five minutes left to leave fifth-from-bottom Evesham with just a point.

It denied the hosts claiming back-to-back victories for the first time this season.

Matthew O'Halloran struck the Evesham upright on 20 minutes but otherwise honours were even in the first-half.

Winger Robert Taylor did shoot wide after a good run and then Evesham came out for the second period in lively fashion.

After John Higgs saved from Richard Ball, the Robins' top goalscorer broke the deadlock on 55 minutes.

Gavin O'Toole's first-time cross to the far post was headed in by Ball for his 13th goal of the season.

Evesham then failed to turn their dominance into more goals and Ball was denied by Higgs more than once.

Finally, promotion-chasing King's Lynn hit them with a cruel equaliser after a scramble in the six-yard box.

n Stourport Swifts had goalkeeper Eric Pudaloff to thank for two stunning saves in a 0-0 draw with Burnham in Division One West.

Swifts are now off the foot of the table on goal difference above Thame who have two games in hand.

On Saturday, Stourport started well and Richard Burgess tested the visitors' goalkeeper early on.

Adam Hughes shot just wide of the post but Pudaloff pulled off an excellent double save three minutes before the interval.

Rory May failed to put away a clear opening for Swifts on 53 minutes and Pudaloff produced the save of the day to deny Damian Smith 15 minutes from the end.
