Aldershot Town came from behind twice to earn a 2-2 draw at home to Tamworth in the National League on Saturday.

The Shots had a number of early chances as they looked to assert themselves.

Josh Barrett had his first sight of goal in the third minute as he was found by Jack Barham from the left wing, but his shot was blocked behind for a corner.

Barrett then forced Jas Singh into a save with a moving effort from outside the area before seeing a shot on the volley blocked after good work from James Henry.

Shots keeper Marcus Dewhurst was called in to action for the first time in the 20th minute as Dan Creaney launched a dipping effort from 30 yards out.

Dewhurst was equal to it despite having to scramble back to his goal, and stretched to tip it over.

Tamworth took the lead four minutes into the second half.

A Tom Tonks long throw was launched into the box and with the Shots unable to clear the ball, it fell straight to the feet of Creaney to fire in.

But their lead lasted just two minutes as Aldershot asserted themselves from a set piece of their own.

Luca Woodhouse found himself unmarked from a corner and his header towards goal was turned in by Barham, who had done well to hold off his marker.

Tamworth scored their second in the 69th minute.

Tonks' quick thinking saw him launch a long throw down the line and Beck-Ray Enoru did well to beat his man and deliver a low cross for Creaney to turn in from close range.

The Shots didn't let the goal get to them and found joy once again from one of their 14 corners.

Woodhouse was again unmarked and connected with Barrett's corner well to head home another equaliser.
