Bosses happy to go again

Both managers were happy to be in the third round draw after the late drama which saw Cambridge and Mansfield draw 2-2 in the FA Cup.

Kwesi Appiah struck for the hosts in the second minute of injury time to prevent Adam Murray from celebrating his first game as permanent Stags boss with a win. Rakish Bingham had put the visitors ahead after just three minutes, but Luke Chadwick levelled soon after. It looked like the Stags were heading into the next round when Tom Champion put through his own net, but Appiah salvaged a replay late on. Having taken temporary charge for the Stags' last three matches, Murray was appointed full-time on Friday, and he spoke of how he wants his side to progress under his stewardship. "Do I think we did enough to win the game? No I don't, if I'm being honest," he said. "I've asked for bravery, for people to control and dictate the game and if we're going to do that moving forward we need to be better. We weren't good enough with the football today, we turned over possession too easily. "At half-time I said to the boys that some of you have to step forward, some of you have to go and be a man and do whatever it takes to come out of here with something today. "I give all credit to the boys because they dug in and got themselves ahead and it's gutting to lose that goal in that period of the game. "It's going to take a period of time before the lads become confident to not just get rid of it as soon as you can. People have to take responsibility now." Opposite number Richard Money was relieved his side have a replay to look forward to following a sub-par second half performance. He said: "I think we've shown a never say die attitude to get ourselves back into the game. "We had periods of good play but periods where we were a bit scrappy and not secure enough with our passing or our defending. A replay's probably a fair result. "I think probably both teams came in at half-time thinking that the game could be 3-3 because we've both created and missed a number of chances. "The second half was always going to be tighter. It's very rare that you get two halves that are as open as the first half was, it was a bit more of a scrap than a football match. "The way the game's gone we're pleased to come out and still be in the hat. Referring to Chadwick's goal that made the score 1-1, Money added: "The first goal was what we try and pride ourselves on and we created two or three really good opportunities with similar types of movement and similar types of passing in the first half, but as I say it was more difficult in the second half because the game was a lot tighter."
