Walsall were back at the Poundland Bescot Stadium on Tuesday evening when they took on Gillingham in their latest outing of the 2024/25 League Two campaign.
Following a turgid first-half, the Saddlers took the lead early in the second as a Connor Barrett effort deflected off Jamille Matt and into the back of the net.
The visitors levelled the scores via Robbie McKenzie's superb effort from outside the area. Tommy Simkin will be disappointed to concede, but it was a great effort.
