NINE-MAN County battled to a deserved point at Basingstoke after having both Kevin Cooper and Martyn Giles sent-off.

In a poor game played in horrible conditions neither side produced many clear-cut chances but the Exiles held their own despite being a man down after 37 minutes when Cooper was red-carded.

Giles joined him in the last minute after picking up his second yellow.
