TEN-man Pershore Town, who were without a recognised keeper for 45 minutes after Neil Turner was sent off, were only denied a point with a late winner from Coventry Marconi last night.
Lee Tustin was forced to take over in goal after 43 minutes when Turner was sent off for handling outside his area in this Midland Combination Premier Division clash.
Pershore had started brightly with Simon Brown and Stephen Spencer going close before Joe Maidment was denied in the 29th minute by Richard Webb.
The visitors also had chances and the match proved to be a real ding-dong battle in the second half with Town's 10 men battling to at least earn a share of the points.
But deep in stoppage time Jamie Harvey managed to head past Tustin for a last gasp winner and deliver a blow to manager Dave Connell's hopes of finishing in the top five.
