Latics fight back for replay

Oldham earned an FA Cup replay after coming back from two goals down to draw 2-2 at Cheltenham.

Robins blow two-goal lead at home

Oldham earned an FA Cup first-round replay after coming back from two goals down at the break to earn a 2-2 draw at Cheltenham. Scott Murray gave Cheltenham a fifth-minute lead, drilling in a shot following some clever play from defender Darren Kenton. The Robins extended their lead just before the break when a crazy challenge from Latics captain Sean Gregan on Lloyd Owusu enabled the striker to convert the resulting penalty. Oldham hit back after the interval through a Chris Taylor penalty, Shane Higgs saving his first shot but powerless to stop the midfielder ramming in the rebound. The visitors equalised with a slice of good fortune when Danny Whitaker's strike from distance was deflected past Higgs. Owusu twice came close to winning the tie when he volleyed against an upright following a long throw from Lee Ridley and then saw Mark Crossley save from eight yards.
