Swindon 1 - 1 Peterborough

Swindon   1 - 1   Peterborough

Swindon 1-1 Peterborough

Charlie Austin's 10th league goal of the season earned Swindon a point against promotion-chasing Peterborough.

The visitors took an early lead after excellent play by George Boyd set up Lee Tomlin to fire home from 10 yards.

The Robins scored a deserved equaliser when Matt Ritchie was brought down by Mark Little in the area, Austin slotting home the resulting spot kick.

Austin had a chance to win it for the hosts but his last-minute effort came back off the post.

Peterborough United boss Gary Johnson told BBC Radio Cambridgeshire:
"I think it was a fair result. We had our opportunities in the first half and they had theirs in the second.

"Swindon have beaten some good teams here so a draw is a good result.

"It was nice to finally play a game of football."
