LIVE - Basingstoke Town v Salisbury City

Full-time - Basingstoke Town 2 Salisbury City 2

Probably a fair result in the end but having led twice, Town will feel they should have won the game.

See Thursday's Gazette for a full report.

90+3 min - Sam-Yorke gets into space but his shot from 25 yards is straight down Puddy's throat.

90+1 min - Sam-Yorke is booked for an off the ball incident.

90 min - Bayes is called into action to keep out Bell-Baggie's shot from an acute angle. There will be four minutes added time.

89 min - Sole should score when the ball falls to him from Warner's cross but he fires badly over from close range.

Salisbury goal - The visitors are awarded a free-kick 25 yards from goal and Losasso's shot seems to go through the Town wall before going in off the post.

85 min - Matthews shoots well wide from the edge of the area and Town make their first change, replacing Gradwell with Matt Warner.

83 min - McAuley is booked after a collision in the Salisbury left-back area and the visitors make their final change, replacing Brett with Matt Wright.

76 min - Sam-Yorke puts Adelsbury and Puddy under pressure and the 'keeper misses his kick - but Sam-Yorke's attempt to lob the ball into the empty net from 18 yards goes wide.

74 min - Salisbury's second change sees Abdulai Bell-Baggie replace Fitchett.

72 min - Robbie Matthews gets on the end of a high cross but can only find the side netting from a tight angle.

70 min - Salisbury make their first change, replacing Stuart Anderson with Charlie Lossano.

Town goal - A ball from the right finds Sam-Yorke on the left side of the area. He seems to be well marshalled by Ben Adelsbury but manages to outmuscle him and beat Puddy with an angled drive.

67 min - A good move involving Lake, McAuley and Sam-Yorke leads to a decent penalty shout as Sole goes down under pressure - but the referee waves play on.

65 min - The ball falls to Ogunbote on the edge of the area but his shot is well wide.

58 min - Sole is booked for a foul in the Salisbury half.

56 min - Sam-Yorke does brilliantly to nick the ball off Giles but fires wide from a tight angle with McAuley waiting for a centre.

51 min - Old is booked for a foul on Williams.

48 min - Williams shoots low from the edge of the box and it goes narrowly wide.

47 min - That's a massive break for the home side. Fitchett gets into space in the area and smashes in a low shot that Bayes does brilliantly to save. The rebound falls back to the Salisbury man, who smashes the ball over from close range when it looked easier to score.

Bayes is not happy with Rice's part in that, bawling the right-back out and really getting in his face.

46 min - Salisbury get the second half under way. No changes for either side at the break.

Half-time - Basingstoke Town 1 Salisbury City 1

Probably a fair half-time score. Salisbury have just edged posession but Town have looked dangerous going forward.

43 min - Lake is booked for a foul in midfield just after Town scramble clear following a good break by Marvin Williams.

39 min - Town are awarded a free-kick on the edge of the area but Giuseppe Sole fires over.

32 min - Another Little corner causes problems and Gradwell's header is hacked away. Seconds later, Shaun McAuley gets into a good position but slices well wide.

29 min - Sinclair gets in down the right but fails to choose between a cross and a shot and the ball is cleared away.

25 min - Little's corner almost creeps in at the far post, being hacked off the line by Stuart Sinclair.

Salisbury goal - Town go close at one end, Sam-Yorke failing to divert Rob Gradwell's flick on target as he stretches, and Salisbury go straight down the field to score.

Neither Toby Little nor Jay Gasson are able to halt the run of Fitchett, whose low centre is inadvertantly lifted over his own 'keeper by Robert Rice.

20 min - GOAL - Basingstoke Town 1 Salisbury City 1 (Rice OG)

Town goal - Robert Rice hurls in a long throw that Salisbury allow to bounce and reach Delano Sam-Yorke. He does brilliantly though, swivelling quickly before firing past Will Puddy in the Salisbury goal.

12 min - Stuart Lake smashes in a volley from long range but it goes way over.

11 min - Salisbury's Stuart Anderson lets fly from outside the area. Ashley Bayes seems to see it late and just about manages to palm the ball past the post.

9 min - A good move by Town almost leads to a chance for Delano Sam-Yorke but a defender nips in to take it away from him.

8 min - That's a real chance for Salisbury as Chris Giles gets up to meet Stuart Sinclair's corner at the near post. He is unmarked but heads well wide.

7 min - The first half-chance falls to the visitors but Dan Fitchett blasts well over from the edge of the area.

1 min - Basingstoke kick the game off, shooting towards the Clubhouse End in the first half.

Team news - Town are still without suspended duo Wes Daly and David Pratt, while Tim Sills has recovered from a knee injury but misses out through illness.

However, the home side do hand a first start to New Zealand international Steven Old, who replaces Angus MacDonald in the heart of defence.

The only other change to the side that lost at Farnborough last time out more than two weeks ago sees Jide Ogunbote replace Nathan Smart, with Robert Rice moving to right-back. Matt Warner is on the bench.

Town: Bayes, Rice, Little, Old, Gasson, Lake, Ogunbote, McAuley, Gradwell, Sam-Yorke, Sole. Subs: Smart, Warner, Dunn, Charlick, Morris.

Salisbury: Puddy, Adelsbury, Brett, Dutton, Webb, Giles, Sinclair, Anderson, Fitchett, Matthews, Williams. Subs: Losasso, Bell-Baggie, Wright, Clarke, Arthur.
