Rob Strachan appeared to have won it for the Deres in the second minute of stoppages but Muhammed Cham netted in the seventh extra minute to make it 2-2.

Stansfeld closed the gap at the top to seven points with a 3-2 success at Deal.

Ben Chapman and Connor Coyne had put Deal 2-0 ahead but Tommy Whitnell and Lee Friend equalised before half-time.

The visitors took the points thanks to Dan Parkinson's winner midway through the second half.

Erith Town lost ground as K Sports ended a run of four straight defeats by winning 2-1 at Erith Stadium.

Luke Medley and Luke Dance scored in either half for Sports, Steadman Callender's late goal proving no more than a consolation.

Marcel McDonald's first-half hat-trick led Glebe to an 8-1 win over Canterbury.

Second-half goals from Jamie Philpot (2), James Dyer, Ross Craig and Harry Gamble completed their tally, Henry Arnold claiming a late consolation.

Trevor McCreadie's stoppage-time header handed Tunbridge Wells a narrow win over Welling Town at the Culverden.

There was also late drama at Rusthall as the hosts looked set for three points, leading 2-0 with a minute left against Lordswood thanks to Louie Clarke's brace.

But Billy Marsh and Junior Baker netted as Lords scored twice in as many minutes to rescue a point.

As with all games at the weekend, a minute's applause was held prior to Bearsted's trip to Punjab United in memory of long-serving Bears secretary Roy Benton who sadly passed away this week.

Ollie Freeman's first-minute strike got their afternoon off to a good start but Punjab hit back through Will Johnson-Cole and Chandler Kasai to take the points.

Kundai Munyama's 90th-minute goal led Kennington to a 2-1 win over Phoenix Sports, who had cancelled out Tom Scorer's first-half opener through Lee Bird.

Two goals in as many minutes from Clyde Semazzi and Fred Obasa gave Holmesdale a 2-1 victory at Hollands & Blair, who led through Sam Bewick's first-half opener.

Fisher progressed in the FA Vase, winning on penalties at AFC Stoneham for the second week running. The tie finished 3-3 after 90 minutes.

The FA ordered the game to be replayed after Stoneham were incorrectly unable to use a player who had been sin-binned in the previous week's shoot-out.

Larkfield are the new leaders in Division 1 after Dan Lott, Luke Burdon and Mackenzie Gardiner scored in a 3-0 win at Forest Hill.

Hicham Akhazzan and Harry Taylor scored in the second half to send Rochester second following a 2-0 success over Bridon Ropes.
