Ronan Curtis had a memorable birthday on Friday with a goal and a red card.

Curtis earned AFC Wimbledon a 1-1 against Harrogate Town at Plough Lane in League Two.

Matty Daly gave Harrogate an early lead, pouncing after only eight minutes to score, converting a George Thomson cross.

In the 58th minute, Curtis drew the Dons level. The St Johnston man finished superbly from a Jake Reeves free-kick for his fourth goal since joining in January.

Curtis, a Republic of Ireland international, was sent off three minutes later after a late tackle on Levi Sutton.

AFC Wimbledon are eighth in the table, six points off the play-off spots.
