Peterborough 1-1 Oldham: Posh hold Oldham
Sunday 19 March 2017 17:35, UK
Oldham were denied a valuable victory in their League One survival battle after being undone by a pair of substitutes in a 1-1 draw at Peterborough.
John Sheridan's side hit the front at the ABAX Stadium as Lee Erwin struck for the third time in two games.
The Leeds United loanee volleyed in an Oliver Banks cross after 11 minutes to make the most of a rare Oldham attack in a first half dominated by the hosts.
They succeeded in holding onto their advantage until the 73rd minute when two Posh replacements combined to great effect.
Half-time arrival Marcus Maddison delivered a stunning cross from the left which was headed in by Junior Morias, who had been brought on after an hour.
