Regan Hendry scored a stoppage-time equaliser to help Tranmere earn a 1-1 draw at MK Dons.

Joe White’s first-half effort looked to have sealed all three points for the hosts before Hendry’s late intervention.

The leveller denied MK Dons victory in their first home game under boss Scott Lindsey, who took over from Mike Williamson last week.

Tranmere arrived without a win in their previous four but had early chances, with Tom McGill denying Kieron Morris and Zak Bradshaw just firing wide.

However, the hosts struck in the 23rd minute when Laurence Maguire played in White, who scored with a fine first-time strike.

The Dons nearly extended their lead after the break as away goalkeeper Luke McGee made fine saves to deny Jack Tucker and Alex Gilbey.

Tranmere struggled to create opportunities for much of the second half, but remained a threat and equalised in the first minute of stoppage time.

Cameron Norman worked the ball for Hendry, who fired a shot across McGill and into the back of the net.
