Promotion battlers Hundleton and Pembroke Borough 2nds shared a thrilling 3-3 draw in Manderwood Pembrokeshire Division Five.

Hundleton have lead the way at the top of the table since the opening game, but had suffered three consecutive losses leading up to this game including a 2-3 loss to Boro.

Pembroke Borough 2nds sit in second place and have their eyes on promotion, but have played more games than their rivals below them.

Boro had an early chance to take the lead when they were awarded a penalty but Luke Hendry hit the crossbar, with Boro also hitting the crossbar on the rebound.

It didn't deter the visitors, with David Roberts firing them ahead with a fantastic left-footed half-volley in the 7th minute.

Boro 2nds then doubled the lead just five minutes later with Connor Rees scoring from a Kyle Wright assist.

After a slow start, Hundleton began to grow into the game and halved the deficit with a goal from James Risley after good work from Robbie Sly down the left before a low cross into the box.

Hundleton equalised in the 67th minute when a defensive mix-up saw the ball land at Stefan Sandford's feet who finished smartly with a superb lob over the Boro keeper.

As Hundleton pushed forward for a winner, Boro hit them on the counter attack with a fantastic run from Luke Hendry on the left beating the full back before whipping in a cross for Connor Rees to fire home.

That wasn't to be the last of the action as Hundleton continued to push forward. After a long ball into the box, a Hundleton header was saved by Boro's keeper before landing at the feet of James Risley to score a late equaliser.
