Exeter City and Fleetwood Town played out a thoroughly entertaining 0-0 draw at Highbury Stadium.
The scoreline didn’t reflect the amount of chances that either side created, with both teams having opportunities to take the victory.
One of the best openings for City came deep into stoppage time in the second half, as Danny Coles couldn’t get over a loose ball and saw his effort clear the bar – but the teams both merited a point from the clash in Lancashire.
There were two changes to Paul Tisdale’s starting XI after the midweek fixture against Bristol Rovers. A back...
