Joseph Hungbo rescued a draw for Swindon with the equaliser in a 1-1 Sky Bet League Two clash with Accrington.

Stanley went ahead after just 21 seconds thanks to Josh Woods but soon ran out of steam, allowing Hungbo to level after the half-hour mark.

Injury-plagued Accrington made a dream start when Tyler Walton easily robbed Anthony Munda in the middle of the park and sent Stefan Mols clear down the right to centre for Woods to calmly nod in at the back post.

Town captain Ollie Clarke had a golden chance to level after a clearance fell to him with the goalkeeper stranded but he curled wide.

Aaron Drinan then closed down the keeper as he tried to clear and the rebound trickled just the wrong side of a post.

Swindon equalised after overlapping full-back Daniel Butler found space down the flank and slung in an early cross for Hungbo to head in at the back post after 31 minutes.

After the break Drinan sped on to a long ball but fired off target and visiting substitute Cole Stockton saw his powerful shot blocked on the line by Stephan Negru at the end of a dull second half.
