Burton Albion FC 3 - 3 Doncaster Rovers: Mark Duffy rescues point for Burton

Mark Duffy rescued a point for Burton in a thrilling 3-3 draw after Doncaster had threatened to spoil Nigel Clough's homecoming.

Clough, in his second spell in charge at the Pirelli Stadium, saw his side trail late on to a Nathan Tyson penalty but Duffy struck in the 89th minute for the Sky Beat League Two leaders.

Andy Williams gave the visitors the perfect start when he turned neatly onto Mitchell Lund's cross to fire home his 10th goal of the season from 12 yards inside four minutes.

Table-topping Burton needed only 14 minutes to level the scores, Calum Butcher racing onto Tom Naylor's inch-perfect pass to steer a low shot past Thorsten Stuckmann.

Doncaster could have regained the lead in the 53rd minute but Burton keeper Jon McLaughlin dived full length to keep out Williams' spot kick after Tyson had been bundled over by John Mousinho.

It proved a costly miss eight minutes later as Butcher calmly beat Stuckmann for the second time.

The visitors were level in the 70th minute when substitute Paul Keegan curled a 20-yard free kick into the top corner.

Tyson put them in front from the spot after being fouled by Phil Edwards seven minutes from the end.

Burton were not finished, however, and Duffy fired into the roof of the net from 12 yards.
