Truro City manager John Askey was unhappy with a decision that led to Slough Town's equaliser in his side's 1-1 draw in National League South.

After a goalless first half Will Dean played in substitute Jaze Kabia to open the scoring after 65 minutes.

Kabia had only been on the field two minutes before finishing well from inside the box for his eighth goal of the season.

But Slough levelled 11 minutes later when Slavi Spasov blasted in from a corner which Askey felt should never have been given.

"We've gone one up and I thought we we're just going to see the game out, and again a decision by the official has inadvertently cost us," he told 大象传媒 Radio Cornwall.

"Their lad's gone to cross the ball, crossed it out of play and he's given them a corner for some strange reason and they score from the corner.

"I know we've got to still defend it, but it's things like that can cost you.

"So it is three points lost really, although I think teams will come here and find it hard."

The draw moves Truro up to second place in the table, a point off leaders Eastbourne Borough with a game in hand.
