ACCRINGTON Stanley had two men sent off but still claimed a point at Barnet in League Two this afternoon.
The Reds ended the game with just nine men after Charlie Barnett and Kevin Long received their marching orders.
Barnett had been restored to the Stanley starting line-up in place of Ian Craney but received a straight red card in the 43rd minute for a challenge on Steve Kabba.
On-loan Burnley centre back Long was then dismissed in the fifth minute of injury time for a professional foul on Charlie Taylor.
Tom Bender - a loan signing from Colchester - made his Stanley debut as a late substitute, with the point putting the Reds 15th in the League Two table.
