Combined Counties Premier North

WOKINGHAM & EMMBROOK moved another point towards safety after they held Burnham to a draw.

Both sides battled to find an opener that proved elusive for the first hour after some impressive defending and sturdy goalkeeping from Sean Woodward.

The visitors broke the deadlock in the 67th minute through a deflected effort, but the Sumas responded instantly and were only behind for a matter of moments.

After James Clark was brought down in the penalty area, Jack Mullan converted from the spot to level the score.
