Darwen scrambled a late draw against bottom of the table Daisy Hill in a dour clash at the Anchor.

The first half was mostly forgettable. After the break, Darwen upped their game but several corners failed to produce a serious threat to goal.

Chris Pearson was running with the ball when he decided to launch a high lob into the area.

The effort caught Moore in goal by surprise, and he had to back pedal to tip the ball over the bar.

Slightly against the run of play, Daisy Hill then took the lead.

A corner was headed down by Farnworth, and Joe Darwin managed to get a hand to push the effort out.

The rebound fell kindly to Irvine, who returned the ball into the net through a crowd of players.

But the Salmoners started to put more pressure on Daisy Hill, with Jon Stephenson squeezing a shot wide, and Reece Rowinski firing straight at Moore in goal.

The pressure finally paid off with five minutes to go as Stephenson latched on to a through bal and managed to slip the ball into the net from a narrow angle.
