Exeter City and Barnet finish in a draw at St James Park
Summary

Exeter City and Barnet played to a 1-1 draw at St James Park on Tuesday. Barnet took the lead midway through the second half when Idris Kanu scored. Reece Cole equalized for Exeter just seven minutes later, helping the home side maintain their unbeaten home record for the season. Manager Matt Taylor praised the physical character of his squad for responding to the deficit after losing Andrew Oluwabori to an injury earlier in the contest. Although Barnet applied pressure throughout the night, the home side effectively contained their opponent’s offensive opportunities. Exeter now turns its attention to a home match against Walsall this Saturday. The result leaves the Grecians looking to build on their performance as they continue their League Two campaign following relegation from League One last season.
