Tonbridge Angels had to settle for a point despite dominating much of their match at Hampton & Richmond Borough in Blue Square Bet South on Saturday.
Ben Judge returned from suspension while boss Tommy Warrilow (pictured) named new signings Chris Piper and Joe Benjamin on the bench,
Angels went close to a breakthrough on five minutes when Mikel Suarez played in Frannie Collin whose centre beat keeper Craig Ross but was scrambled away with Chris Henry waiting to pounce.
Judge charged down a shot from Louie Rae-Beadle at the other end while James Simmonds lashed off target and hooked another chance wide before Jon Heath was fortunate not to see red for a second yellow in quick succession and Dave Tarpey curled the resultant free-kick past Lee Worgan's post.
However, it was the visitors who opened the scoring on the half-hour when Ross hesitated coming off his line to gather a Collin flick on and after Lee Browning slid in, the ball broke to Nathan Koranteng who rifled home into the corner.
However, the hosts were level just five minutes later when Taroey burst forward and cut inside before laying off for Karle Andrews to drive high past Worgan and level the scores from 18 yards.
Judge thought he'd put Angels 2-1 up on the stroke of half-time, only for his header from a Suarez flick to be superbly saved by Ross, who also denied Collin with his legs after the break.
Suarez headed narrowly over the bar and screwed wide when put clean through by Piper - on for Heath at the interval - while his flicked headers across the face of goal almost allowed Collin and Sonny Miles the chance to make it 2-1.
Tarpey curled the ball wide of Worgan's post on a rare break from Hampton in the closing stages but the game ended with Judge seeing a shot charged down from an injury-time corner.
The point did take Angels back into the top half, though they have played more games than the sides around them.
