Peterborough 5 Swindon 4Npower League One
RESULT: Peterborough United 5 Swindon Town 4 Peterborough scorers: Mackail-Smith (2) 3, 5; Frecklington 22, Boyd 58, Amankwah (OG) 90+4 Swindon scorers: Ball (2) 24, 43; Ritchie 30, Austin (pen) 73 Town came back from 3-0 down but condeded in injury-time just as an unlikely point beckoned.
Quick out of the blocks, free-scoring Peterborough shocked the Robins with goals in their first two attacks before grabbing their third after only 22 minutes.
But when David Ball made an immediate response, followed by the re-appearance of Charlie Austin as a substitute for Vincent Pericard, Swindon's travelling fans finally had something to cheer about.
Celebrations that continued with Matt Ritchie's first Town goal on the half-hour before Ball struck again to complete an incredible first-half comeback.
Pulsating
The drama continued immediately into the second-half with Phil Smith replacing Dave Lucas (toothache) in the Town goal and Peterborough re-taking the lead.
Good saves from Smith then kept Town in the game, before Austin capped his return from a shoulder injury by converting a penalty in the 72nd minute after JP McGovern was brought down.
At 4-4, both sides looked likely winners, with the Peterbrough keeper taking his turn to make fine saves, most notably from an Amankwah header.
But just as the referee was about to blow for full-time, Town failed to see the game out when Sean Morrison got caught on the ball and Amankwah ended up firing into his net.
"A farcical finish that summed up our defending today," commented an angry Danny Wilson.
Town fall two places to 16th.
