Wilkinson gave the home side the lead with a close range header from a Matt Saunders free kick as the central defender rose higher than Nick Fenton to head the ball past Barry Roche from six yards out.
The Shrimps then hit back in dramatic fashion. Drummond levelled the scores with 10 minutes to when he ran on to Jack Redshaw’s superb through ball before firing a dipping right foot shot past Chris Lewington from 12 yards out.
