Scorer Tyrone Marsh sent off as Torquay draw at Altrincham

Tyrone Marsh scored but was later sent off as Torquay were pegged back to draw 1-1 with Altrincham.

Torquay dominated the opening stages and Alex Fisher and Marsh went close twice apiece, while Jake Moult led Altrincham's efforts at the other end.

The opener came in the 24th minute when James Hurst sent Marsh through to cut inside and finish left-footed.

Gianluca Havern blocked Courtney Richards' piledriver and Tim Deasy pushed away Fisher's strike before the break, while Altrincham's Scott Leather shot over from close range.

Marsh saw another good effort saved but Altrincham drew level when Moult let fly from 30 yards for a superb goal.

Marsh was then dismissed for violent conduct following an off-the-ball incident and the 11 men pressed for a winner, but Moult's shot was blocked and Leather headed wide.
