Torquay United manager Paul Wotton was left frustrated as his side drew at struggling St Albans City in National League South.
Harrison Smith gave the hosts a sixth-minute lead before the Gulls levelled eight minutes into the second half from Jordan Young's penalty kick.
Dan Hayfield and Young both hit the woodwork as the Gulls tried for a winner, and Jay Foulston was denied a goal after the assistant referee ruled that the ball had gone out of play in the build up.
Despite the draw, Torquay remain top of National League South by two points.
"Ultimately, our first-half display you could say has cost us the three points," Wotton told BBC Radio Devon.
"Second half, how we haven't scored more goals and won the game I don't know.
"But it is what it is. We looked fit, we looked strong, we ran over the top of St Albans second half and just lacked that final little bit of quality to get the second goal and go over the line."
