There were mixed emotions for Ramsgate boss Jamie Coyle after Kane Rowland’s brilliant late equaliser against Haywards Heath.

The Isthmian South East leaders scored twice in added time to salvage a 3-3 draw at Southwood on Saturday.

Taofiq Olomowewe, with his second goal of the game, gave them hope in the 95th minute.

And substitute Rowland levelled from an outrageous scorpion-kick three minutes later, with footage of the goal attracting more than 430,000 views by this morning.

“It’s gone viral,” said Rams boss Coyle.

“It’s an outstanding goal, especially coming in the 98th minute and how important that point could potentially be for us come the end of the season.

“We might look back at that goal as a turning point.

“We had so many players under-performing on the day but to get something out of it like we did showed loads of character.

“There were real mixed emotions after the game.

“There was disappointment in terms of everyone knew it wasn’t one of our best performances but then we’ve got a point when it looked like we were dead and buried at 3-1 down after 95 minutes.

“Everyone knew we were way off the standards we’ve set in recent weeks.

"We were poor, as a whole, and we didn’t deserve anything out of it but we’ve shown our resilience to come back. It’s definitely a point gained.”

Rowland was introduced midway through the second half, replacing Gil Carvalho, with Ramsgate 3-1 down.

He’ll be pushing for a start at Chichester this Saturday (3pm).

“Kane’s attitude and desire coming off the bench has been outstanding,” said Coyle, with Rams’ lead at the top down to two points after Chatham won at Burgess Hill.

“I’ve said all along we need the whole squad between now and the end of the season if we’re going to achieve anything and he’s shown that, not only with his goal but his overall performance.

“We’ve got good depth and whether it’s because of injuries, suspensions or players under-performing, you need players who can change a game and put a question mark on why they weren’t starting.

“Kane’s been unfortunate to be out of the team, with Rowan Liburd’s recent performances, but he’s come on and made an impact.”

Coyle hopes to return from injury at Chichester, while Youssouf Bamba is available after attending his sister’s wedding in France.

Ramsgate will need to tighten up defensively against a strong City side if they are to retain top spot going into the Easter weekend.

Coyle said: “When you look and analyse games, on the whole it’s the team that makes the least mistakes that wins.

“The three goals we’ve conceded on Saturday are from really poor individual mistakes and led to us being 3-1 down.

“We’ll need to deliver a much better performance to get anything from the game at Chichester.

“We need to make sure we go there with the right mentality.

“They’re a tough nut to crack. They’re always a good side, well-organised, and they’ve got a lot of youngsters from pro clubs, who’ve been in that pro environment. It’ll be a very difficult game.”
