The Four Nations tournament has put Sussex on the non-league football map, according to Eastbourne Borough boss Garry Wilson.

Over 1,000 fans watched England draw their second game of the five-day competition against Wales at Borough's Priory Lane last night.

Paul Fairclough's side will lift the trophy if they win their final match against Scotland tomorrow and Wales fail to beat Ireland.

The Scots won 2-1 against Ireland in the other game held at Worthing with goals from Craig MacMillan and Stuart McKay.

Wilson believes the event has raised the profile of the semi-pro game in the county.

He said: "Looking around the stadium and talking to people before the games, you realise how many have travelled down from all over the country.

"There are scouts and other high-profile people from lots of Football League and other clubs.

"It has certainly put Eastbourne Borough on the map and Sussex as well.

"You would have thought the tournament would be held in the Midlands somewhere, so whoever managed to bring it down here deserves a pat on the back.

"It has made a lot of people aware of non-league football in the area and, hopefully, people will now know who we are and look at us in a good light."

England only had themselves to blame for failing to beat plucky Wales.

They missed a string of chances after going ahead through Woking striker Justin Richards and were punished by a late penalty.

Fairclough said his side need the help of local fans to ensure they do not slip up again against the old enemy.

He said: "The way the situation has contrived itself, it is going to be a massive occasion against Scotland.

"Wales kick off at 12.30pm and by the time we kick off (4pm) we will know exactly what we have to do.

"It could be an amazing game, so we need all the people of Eastbourne to grab a friend and bring them along and for that friend to bring another friend with them.

"Let's fill the stadium up and make it a real humdinger of an event."

England strolled through their first game, a 2-0 victory over Ireland, but it was clear from the beginning that they were in for a battle against the Dragons.

The Welsh, who also won their opening match 2-1 against Scotland, were a strong, powerful side with players from the Conference, Southern League and the League of Wales.

They had a familiar face in goal, former QPR keeper Tony Roberts, who won two full international caps during his professional career at Loftus Road.

The experienced Dagenham stopper could do nothing to prevent England's opener on 28 minutes though. Northwich defender Kieron Charnock drilled the ball across goal after George Boyd's corner had only been half-cleared and Richards was on hand to slot in from two yards.

Roberts was almost left with a face as red as his team-mates' shirts four minutes later when he was beaten again. He made a mess of a deflected 20-yard drive from Ian Traney, letting it squirm under his body but, to his relief, the goal was ruled out for offside.

England should have put the game out of sight early in the second half.

Aaron McLean smashed a side-footed shot against the bar after linking up with Grays' team-mate Dennis Oli.

The stocky striker then nodded over from close range after the outstanding Boyd had picked him out with a looping cross.

Oli missed a carbon copy opportunity soon after, heading wide when it looked easier to score.

The crowd were stunned into silence 11 minutes from time when Wales snatched an equaliser against the run-of-play.

A quick counter-attack ended with substitute Nathan Davies being brought down by a rash sliding tackle by Charnock and Dagenham striker Chris Moore scored the resulting penalty.
