Stevenage Borough 0 - 0 Luton Town: Paul Benson sees red as Luton earn point at Stevenage
Posted Sunday, November 22, 2015 by PA
Paul Benson's dangerous tackle saw him sent off for Luton as they drew 0-0 at Stevenage in a game marred by fighting between the two sets of fans late on.
Shortly after missing a chance to give his side a second-half lead, Benson was then dismissed for a two-footed challenge on Tom Conlon after 86 minutes.
Immediately afterwards a group of Luton fans ran over to the home section where they clashed and police had to intervene while in the game itself Stevenage's Josh McQuoid saw his late header come back off the bar.
It was the home side who threatened early on with Armand Gnanduillet wriggling through Luton's defence after seven minutes but his right-footed shot went wide of the post.
The best chance for the visitors came before the break when Dean Wells cleared McQuoid's shot off the line.
Jonathan Smith saw his 52nd minute effort saved while Luton's Danny Green's free-kick came back off the bar.
Benson then missed a golden opportunity before the late drama between the fans.
