Town came from two down to claim a fully deserved point against the Martyrs in the first game of the season at the MoodChimp Stadium on Tuesday evening.

Headers from Jarrad Wright and Scott Tancock put Merthyr two up by the 38th minute, but Jazz Luckie pulled one back two minutes later and Edwin Ahenkorah levelled for Town five minutes into the second half.

The only dampener in another powerful Town performance was a red card for Ben Stephens who was sent off along with Merthyr’s Ian Traylor after an incident in the 53rd minute.
