Newport IoW 1, Abingdon Utd 1
Ryan Curtin was the saviour for Abingdon as his late strike earned a share of the Southern League Division 1 South & West spoils in Newport last night.
Abingdon started slowly and went a goal down after just ten minutes when Watson found the net.
That woke Abingdon up, with Mark Simms going close before a shot from Julian McCalmon fizzed wide.
In the second half, Curtin almost levelled after the keeper dropped a cross.
Anaclet Odhiambo then went close after great work from Michaes Herbert.
McCalmon thought he had levelled, only for his goalbound effort to rebound to safety off the Newport goalkeeper's head.
At the other end, Simon Tricker made a stunning one-handed save to keep Newport out.
Five minutes from time, Curtin equalised after Odhiambo squared the ball to him from substitute Ryan Brooks's cross.
Abingdon Utd: Tricker, Organ, Moss, Peirson, Ballard, Curtin, Ferreira (Brooks 65), McCalmon, Herbert, Simms, Odhiambo.
