Brisbane Roar Youth were denied their second win of the season by a late Charlie Beverley equaliser as FNQ FC Heat came back to secure a 1-1 draw at Meakin Park on Sunday afternoon. 

The hosts enjoyed much of the ball in the first half, but a well-organised Heat backline prevented the Young Roar from creating many dangerous openings.

That changed shortly before half-time when Finn Beakhurst smacked a shot off the upright, before Nathan Yoon scrambled the ball home to give the Young Roar the lead. 

Heat flew out of the blocks in the second half as Charlie Beverley and Jamie Carroll began to link up dangerously, but it looked like their efforts would come to nothing when Carroll was substituted.

Beverley continued to push for an equaliser and was rewarded with seconds left on the clock, poking home from close range to leave the match all square. 

The Young Roar host SWQ Thunder at Suncorp Stadium next Saturday, while Heat will welcome Moreton Bay United to Cairns.

Key Moments

14’ - CHANCE FOR HEAT: Christopher O'Hare thumps one from distance and stings the palms of Macklin Freke.

33’ - CHANCE FOR HEAT: Joshua Pin spurns a brilliant chance, leaning back just as he hits a volley and sending it well over. 

40’ - GOAL FOR YOUNG ROAR: Nathan Yoon is the quickest to react after Finn Beakhurst hits the post with a fantastic shot from distance. 

48’ - CHANCE FOR HEAT: Charlie Beverley breaks into the box and the ball falls to Jamie Carroll, but the No. 9 can't keep his shot down.

59’ - CHANCE FOR HEAT: Beverley rises high in the box but his header goes wide. 

85’ - CHANCE FOR HEAT: Kasper Holmbech and Beverley take turns to shoot, but both efforts are charged down by desperate Young Roar defenders.
