DONCASTER, England (Interstat) — Matt Phillips scored in the ninth minute and Billy Sharp equalized in the 69th as Doncaster and Stevenage played to a 1-1 draw Saturday in a League One match at Eco-Power Stadium.

The draw extended Stevenage’s unbeaten run to two matches, following a 1-0 win over Barnsley and a 2-2 tie with Lincoln City. Stevenage entered the contest with a 20-13-12 record in League One and 21-14-12 across all competitions.
