Report and pics of AFC Telford 3 Southport 3
Mike Phenix's dramatic 89th minute goal helped AFC Telford United avoid a fourth straight defeat in the Conference Premier at home to Southport.
The Bucks had to overcame three defensive errors and a sending off for Godfrey Poku to snatch their second point of the campaign in an entertaining 3-3 draw.
They fell behind on 21 minutes when Johnny Gorman exploited a big gap in the hosts' defensive wall from a free-kick.
But Mike Phenix pulled them level nine minutes later with a close range finish, after Sandgrounders' goalkeeper Daniel Lloyd-Weston had clawed away Andy Owens' superb curling effort.
Telford fell behind again in disappointing circumstances, though, when they failed to react anywhere near quickly enough to a Luke George free-kick on 43 minutes.
Danny Hattersley was left in acres of space inside the box and Brodie could not miss from his cut back, which left him with a simple tap in from a few yards out.
Telford's prospects then took an even greater blow when Poku was sent off just before the break, having been deemed to raise his hands to Brodie following a tussle.
Manager Liam Watson made two changes at the break, with Sean Clancy and Adam Farrell replacing Neill Byrne and Sam Smith.
And Clancy created a 52nd minute leveller for Tony Gray, who turned home from close range.
Brodie pounced on yet more slack defending to hammer the visitors back in front on 71 minutes though.
And despite several close shaves that looked to be the decisive blow until Phenix grabbed his second goal of the game, tapping home from Farrell's far post cross late on.
