Dag & Red 1-1 Barnet

Anthony Thomas' first goal of the season secured Barnet a draw away at Football League newcomers Dagenham.

Ben Strevens had opened the scoring for the hosts on 20 minutes, poking home after a mix-up between goalkeeper Lee Harrison and defender Joe Devara.

But Thomas squared matters in the third minute of first-half injury time with a powerful strike from distance.

Barnet's Ismail Yakubu was denied a last-minute winner when Tony Roberts produced a point-blank save.
