Seven minutes from time, Jake Ross squandered a clear chance, sending his shot well wide and leaving the Hawks' lead hanging by a thread.
Temple's persistence paid off in the 87th minute, when a well‑placed strike levelled the match at 1‑1, capping a comeback that highlighted the visitors' resilience.
