York City 2-2 Carlisle United

Ten-man York recovered from two goals down to draw with Carlisle.

The Cumbrians took the lead when Tom Miller was sent clear by teenager Alex Gilliead, slotting into the corner.

Troy Archibald-Henville made it 2-0 from 12 yards and it got worse for York when Vadaine Oliver was dismissed for an off-the-ball incident.

But Luke Summerfield scored from the spot after being fouled, with Josh Carson equalising two minutes' later from Emile Sinclair's right-wing cross.

York City manager Russ Wilcox told BBC Radio York:

"First half we've looked back on the stats and they've entered the box four times and had two shots on goal so that's disappointing.

"Did we play well enough in the first half? I think at times we did. Did the system work? I think at times it did.

"I think the positives from today are character and togetherness. I think 99 out of 100 today in the crowd would have thought that was an away win.

"You make the changes and hope for a reaction and two weeks running the lads that have come on off the bench have made a big impression on the game."
