Exeter City 1-1 Aldershot 

Aldershot Town finally secured their return to the Football League - 16 years after Aldershot FC folded - with a draw at play-off hopefuls Exeter.

The hosts took the lead when Adam Stansfield fired home from 12 yards after being played in by Matthew Gill.

But Aldershot were soon level through Scott Donnelly, who cracked a low shot past goalkeeper Andy Marriott.
