SOLIHULL Moors interim manager James Quinn described Saturday’s 4-4 draw with Morecambe as ‘like a basketball game’.

Jamey Osborne put Solihull ahead in the 25th minute before Jack Nolan equalised five minutes later.

Jacob Wakeling restored Solihull’s lead just before the break, but Admiral Muskwe’s quickfire double shortly after half-time put Morecambe ahead.

Brad Nicholson then headed Solihull level before Miguel Azeez made it 4-3 to Morecambe in the 75th minute.

But Wakeling’s second of the day with 13 minutes remaining brought the Moors level once again to cap an exciting contest.

Quinn told the Moors’ official website: “It was a great game to watch, for the fans and for neutrals, but if you were on either set of staff, it’s not exactly the game you want – it turned into a bit of a basketball game.

“It was they attacked, we attacked, they attacked, we attacked, up until about the last 10 minutes, where we really got a lot of possession in their final third.

“I think we probably had more chances than we’ve ever had at the club in my time – and we scored four of them.

“But I’m still not happy with that – we should have had seven or eight!

“At the end of the day, I’m really pleased with the attitude of the lads when they went behind, to keep going and keep fighting and to keep running.

“They showed exceptional energy and they never gave up – and again, that’s another side of them that I’m seeing of them – I saw the fighting side of them last week and I’m seeing this this week.

“We’ll take a point, they were a good team with some really good players in there and we’ll take a point and move on to next week.”
