FOOTBALL - Farmer nets stunner as Leamington held to draw by play-off chasing Buxton

OWEN Farmer scored his first Leamington goal as the Brakes drew 1-1 at home against play-off chasing Buxton.

Farmer put the Brakes ahead shortly before half time at the Your Co-Op Community Stadium only for Kieran Burton to equalise for the visitors late on.

And the result means Leamington sit 14th in the National League North table.

The Brakes broke the deadlock one minute before half time when Farmer crashed home an unstoppable volley into the top corner from 20-yards out.

However, Buxton drew level 10 minutes from time as Burton stopped to head in a free-kick from the right at the back post.

Leamington are next in action against Scarborough Athletic on Saturday, February 22 with kick-off at 3pm at Scarborough Sports Village.
