Defender David Okagbue bundled home a stoppage-time equaliser to rescue promotion-chasing Walsall a 2-2 draw against lowly Bromley in League Two.

Liam Gordon put Walsall ahead but Michael Cheek’s ninth goal of the season and Danny Imray’s cracker turned the game on its head before Okagbue struck with virtually the last kick.

Walsall could have led 20 minutes in, breaking swiftly from a Bromley corner as Jack Earing set Nathan Lowe racing away but his shot was kept out by keeper Grant Smith’s foot.

Bromley created the better first-half chances, Olufela Olomola flashing Corey Whitely’s knockdown wide and firing a smart strike off the far post.

Walsall, though, led on 40 minutes, wing-back Gordon racing away on another counter to steer a fine finish above Smith’s reach.

Bromley levelled on 59 minutes as Cheek had time to control a loose ball in the box and bundle in a scruffy finish.

Imray crashed in off the underside of the bar from an acute angle to put Bromley ahead on 77 minutes but Okagbue stabbed home a 94th-minute corner to salvage a Saddlers point.
