New signing Michael Smith grabbed his third goal in two games to earn Swindon a point at Walsall.

The visitors started brightly and tested goalkeeper Richard O'Donnell through Alex Pritchard's low drive.

Walsall took the lead when Romaine Sawyers dummied James Chambers' flick-on before firing home from Craig Westcarr's pass.

Town improved after the break and secured a draw when ex-Charlton man Smith headed in Darren Ward's cross.

Swindon had to hang on as Malvind Benning fired just wide before substitute Ashley Hemmings clipped the crossbar.

VIEW FROM THE DRESSING ROOM

Swindon Town manager Mark Cooper told 91�ȱ� Wiltshire:

"I'm pleased that we've come away and got something against a team that are doing really well.

"We were expected to take a bit of a battering tonight, but we came and we were dogged.

"When we changed to three at the back, with two wing-backs, I thought we looked a real threat.

"We are pleased we looked more solid and you do have to ride your luck at times."
