The match was played at the Winklebury Football Complex.

Michael Harding’s penalty put Hanworth ahead, but Upton’s deflected 79th-minute effort secured a 1-1 draw after sustained pressure from the hosts.

The afternoon began with Basingstoke’s traditional Remembrance Game, sponsored by the supporters’ club.

Kev Miller and a representative of the visitors laid wreaths while a bugler from Cove Brass Band sounded the Last Post.

The tribute was observed respectfully across the ground.

Earlier, Amar Singh joined Martyn Bagshaw, Miller, Matt Warmington, Dan Brownlie and Ben Jefford at Worting Road Cemetery to pay respects at the grave of Sergeant Major William George Butt, a former Basingstoke player.

Hanworth arrived third in the table and unbeaten in five matches, with National League experience among their squad.

Former Basingstoke midfielder Elliott Bolton was also involved for the visitors.

Louis McGrory returned to the starting line-up after missing the trip to Chertsey Town, while Singh was included in the squad.

There was little between the sides during a cagey opening period.

Amir Hadi headed Lewis Colwell’s cross over the bar, while Jezz Okine-Peters created space on the edge of the area before shooting straight at Pat Nash.

Okine-Peters later broke clear on the left, but his attempted square pass towards Hadi was intercepted.

At the other end, Simon Grant held Haydon Vaughan’s effort before beating away Jake Leahy’s fierce shot from a tight angle.

The decisive moment of the first half came in the 35th minute.

Michael Harding drove into the penalty area and Dan Bayliss appeared to shift his weight out of Harding’s path.

Grant emerged with possession, but the referee pointed to the spot.

Harding converted the penalty himself, sending Hanworth into the interval with the lead.

Basingstoke improved significantly after the break, pressing in numbers and denying their opponents time to settle.

The visitors’ manager later praised the way the home side had organised themselves and executed their plan.

The pressure continued when Okine-Peters went down inside the area, although the referee allowed play to continue.

Nash tipped Tom Blake’s free-kick over the bar, before another effort from the midfielder was blocked.

Kristian Shevchenko made his second appearance and brought energy to the attack after replacing Okine-Peters, who had suffered a dead leg.

McGrory headed over from another Colwell delivery, while Joe O’Loughlin sent a dangerous ball across the six-yard box.

Hanworth remained capable of threatening, with Grant making a sharp save to turn another Leahy attempt around the post.

Then, with 79 minutes played, D’Andre Brown sent a cross into the penalty area.

Upton, with his back to goal, launched himself into an overhead kick.

The ball clipped a defender, looped over Nash and struck the underside of the bar before crossing the line.

Winklebury erupted as the equaliser arrived.

The hosts continued to push for a winner, but the visitors defended firmly and held on for a point.

Basingstoke Supporters’ Club named Upton their Manimal Vehicle Rental Man of the Match.

The draw extended a demanding run that has also included Plymouth Parkway, Uxbridge and Chertsey Town.

Next up, Basingstoke welcome Chippenham Town to the Winklebury Football Complex on 14 November.
