Kyle Morrison salvages point for Solihull against Eastleigh with late leveller

Kyle Morrison’s stoppage-time equaliser earned Solihull Moors a point at home to Eastleigh in their National League opener.

After a pre-match tribute to late Moors chairman Trevor Stevens, affectionately known as ‘Mr Solihull’, it was the visitors who made the quickest start as Paul McCallum went close and Enzio Boldewijn struck a post.

The pair were then both denied by home keeper Tommy Simkin before Jamey Osborne and Josh Kelly tested Eastleigh’s Joe McDonnell in a first half that finished goalless.

Boldewijn headed Eastleigh in front 10 minutes after half-time from Charlie Carter’s cross.

Kyle Morrison and Osborne went close to an equaliser and though Moors had Nico Gordon sent off with a minute of the 90 remaining, Morrison struck deep into added time to salvage a point.
