Wycombe Wanderers manager Matt Bloomfield said he is 'satisfied' with his team's performance after they drew 2-2 with Peterborough United.
The Chairboys took the lead through Brandon Hanlan’s 20th minute opener, before a Joel Randall corner and a fantastic effort from Ephron Mason-Clarke on the stroke of half-time put the Posh a goal up.
However, Wanderers piled on the pressure and got their equaliser through a Mason-Clarke own goal from a Luke Leahy free-kick.

It’s only the sixth time that Wycombe have drawn since Bloomfield took over in February, but the result meant it’s the first time since 2018 that the Adams Park side have scored in seven consecutive away games.
Additionally, it’s the first time this season that the club have picked up a point since falling behind away from home.
He said: “We knew we would be up against a tough opponent as I like the way Darren sets his team up, so we knew that we had to defend well.
“My overriding feeling is of pride and joy as we pressed, defended and created really well.
“We had more shots at goal, more shots on target, more shots inside the box, more XG so I’m very happy.
“I felt very calm because for the first 40 minutes, we were the better team, but we were erratic for five minutes which was when they scored their second.
“That was disappointing but you need to take the emotion out, so I told the boys how I saw it, as all we wanted was to replicate the first half in the second.
“We did that and I really enjoyed the way we played.

“I’m satisfied as we played against a top opposition.
“We spoke at Charlton and Portsmouth about playing well but not getting anything, so today’s like today showed that we had the character to do that.
“This group is slowly growing and developing.
“Of course, we want to improve but I’m satisfied.”
