Guernsey FC midfielder Matt Loaring says it felt like 'Groundhog Day' as his side conceded in stoppage time to draw 3-3 at Metropolitan Police.
Owen Wallbridge's 22nd-minute goal cancelled out Archie Lowery's opener for the Londoners before Ross Allen's 41st-minute penalty and a Sam Murray goal three minutes after the break put the Green Lions 3-1 up.
But Mason Galloway converted a penalty soon after to make it 3-2 before Kynan Kirlew-Wright blasted in a half-cleared corner from the edge of the box in the fourth minute of stoppage time to ensure the points were shared.
The late goal denied Guernsey a second win of the season and leaves them second-from-bottom of Isthmian League South Central with six points from 12 games.
"It feels like Groundhog Day for us at the moment," Loaring told BBC Radio Guernsey.
"It's the same thing every week, we seem to be playing really well and not quite getting what we deserve.
"This is a another disappointing one for us today playing against a team that, the way the game went, we feel we should have won the game quite comfortably.
"Somehow we're finding a way of not getting the points at the moment, so it is frustrating."
