Charlie Austin salvages point for Swindon against Harrogate
Posted Sunday, March 03, 2024 by PA
Charlie Austin’s late equaliser earned Swindon a 1-1 draw at home to Harrogate.
Swindon had the game’s first big chance when Ricky Aguiar made a clever run in behind Harrogate and managed to slip a pass into Aaron Drinan.
The striker looked to take his shot on early from the edge of the box and it flashed just wide of the near post.
Seven minutes into the second half Anthony O’Connor stole a march from a wide free-kick and ran away from his markers to nod the ball beyond Jack Bycroft and into the far corner of the net and put Harrogate in front.
Swindon almost struck back straight away as Udoka Godwin-Malife got free down the side and his cross into the area deflected back to Paul Glatzel in the area, and his low shot was cleared off the line.
With five minutes remaining, Austin scored a towering header after Zachary Elbouzedi had finally worked enough room to pick him out with a cross from the right.
