Walsall extended their unbeaten run to eight matches with a last-gasp draw at Tranmere, although the result sees Lee Grant\u2019s side miss the chance to go top of League Two.<\/p>\n
Bobby Faulkner’s towering second half header gave Rovers a deserved lead, before Reece Smith struck at the death to rescue a point for The Saddlers.<\/p>\n
An entertaining start saw Tranmere pepper the Walsall box, with Jed Ward on hand to produce a string of fine saves for his side.<\/p>\n
The goalkeeper did well to block Charlie Whitaker’s strike before smartly parrying Tom Ince’s fizzed drive to safety, whilst Aaron Pressley spurned a glorious chance at the other end – blazing over from close-range.<\/p>\n
Whitaker then earned a penalty for the hosts after dancing past Sven Sprangler in the box, but Ward superbly denied Joe Ironside down to his right.<\/p>\n
Tranmere’s pressure eventually told on 72 minutes though, when Faulkner rose highest to power Will Vaulks’ corner past the stranded Ward.<\/p>\n
But Smith broke Rovers hearts in stoppage time, rolling past Harrison Male from inside the box to send the travelling fans wild.<\/p>\n
