Chester battle back for share of the spoils
Dagenham threw away a two-goal lead as late goals ensured Chester secured a 2-2 draw at the Deva Stadium.
The Daggers looked to have secured all three points but the home side hit back through David Mannix and Kevin Roberts.
The visitors went ahead after six minutes when Jon Nurse pulled the ball across the face of goal for Ben Strevens to side-foot home from 10 yards out.
Strevens then wasted a great opportunity to put his side two up when he raced clean through on goal but his effort rattled a post.
Matt Ritchie appeared to have made the game safe after 36 minutes, lashing the ball home with a left-footed strike after a poor James Vaughanclearance fell to him just inside the penalty area.
But Mannix gave Chester hope with a header from Ryan Lowe's corner after 86 minutes before Roberts nodded home from close range to steal a point.
