Accrington hit back to draw against unbeaten Grimsby
Accrington came from 2-0 down to rescue a point against unbeaten Grimsby in a 2-2 draw.
The Mariners opened the scoring after six minutes when a shot by former Stanley player Harvey Rodgers was deflected into his own net by Joe Anderson.
A minute later it should have been two but unmarked Andy Cook headed over.
Louie Moulden kept out Cook on 30 minutes and the Stanley goalkeeper pushed away a Sonny Finch strike four minutes later.
Moulden could do nothing with the next chance after 38 minutes when Kieran Green crossed for Cook and he flicked the ball home.
Stanley were given a lifeline when Geza David Turi was judged to have brought down Tyler Walton and, in the seventh minute of added time, Josh Woods slotted home the penalty.
It was a more even second half and the Reds equalised after 60 minutes when Donald Love’s cross was fired home from close range by Walton.
It could then have gone either way, Town’s substitute keeper Seb Auton diving low to keep out a Shaun Whalley header while Cook hit a post on 75 minutes and Moulden denied the striker with the last action of the game.
