A point away at one of the National League’s top sides is almost always a good one no matter which way you look at it.

Hartlepool United bounced back from an opening minute set-back to draw 1-1 with Boreham Wood at Meadow Park on Saturday thanks to a Gime Toure strike and Ben Killip penalty save.

Dave Challinor’s side went into the match in good form having picked up consecutive victories without conceding.

But any momentum they carried into the match was instantly halted by The Wood as Kabongo Tshimanga pounced on Matt Rhead’s saved header to give the hosts the lead inside the first minute.
