A point is better than none but the Sports and Enfield were both in need of three after starting the day seven points off safety in National South.
Things were looking good for Tommy Widdrington’s side at the break after Adam May’s first Borough goal put the hosts in front.
But after Gold Omotayo and Maxwell Mullins both hit the woodwork as Borough hunted a second, Henry Hawkins volleyed in an equaliser with 15 minutes to go.
It means Borough – and Enfield for that matter – are now six points below the safety line, Widdrington’s men visit tenth-placed Chesham next Saturday.
