Grimsby hit back from two down at Cheltenham to claim fourth draw in a row
Grimsby hit back from two goals down to claim a 2-2 draw at Cheltenham and preserve their unbeaten start to the season.
Goals from Charlie McCann and Andreas Weimann put the home side 2-0 up before half-time.
But substitute Mark Shelton sparked the response for David Artell’s side and Kieran Green headed in a late equaliser to make it four successive draws for the Mariners.
Cheltenham opened the scoring when Jake Evans set up McCann for his fourth goal of the season in the 12th minute, with a first-time finish into the bottom right corner.
It was 2-0 when Evans was tripped by Cameron McJannet in the box and Weimann sent David Harrington the wrong way from the penalty spot in the 41st minute.
Shelton went on at half-time and he pulled one back with a neat finish after Harvey Rodgers’ pass two minutes into the second half.
And Green leapt highest to nod Jayden Sweeney’s corner into the net in the 82nd minute as honours finished even.
