The Lions were given hope when Elias Jelert was sent off for two bookable offences in the 73rd minute.

Sacha Boey pulled a goal back in the 75th minute with a stunning effort after being setup by Tete who also came off the bench.

Zaha taunted the opposition defence down the wing and played an instrumental role in the equaliser on 78 minutes.

He dribbled past the fullback down the left and sent in a delightful cross which Tete smashed home with an incredible strike.
