- Published
National League promotion-chasers Stockport and Torquay lost ground on leaders Sutton as they fought out a draw.
Macauley Southam-Hales fired Stockport ahead after 34 minutes with a brilliant curling finish from the edge of the area.
However, Torquay, who had been unlucky when Connor Lemonheigh-Evans struck a post from a tight angle, were level through Scott Boden's penalty five minutes before the interval.
Boden prodded Torquay ahead from close range in the 57th minute after his first effort had hit the crossbar.
But Stockport levelled six minutes later when John Rooney's deep corner was headed in at the far post by Ashley Palmer.
Both sides had chances to win in a frantic finish, but the draw left second-placed Torquay three points behind Sutton with two games to play.
County moved up to third, but the draw ended their hopes of clinching the one automatic promotion place.
