.....Hebburn Town on Wednesday night in the Ebac Northern League First Division - for the second time this season.
The former Darlington keeper volleyed a last-gasp equaliser against Newton Aycliffe in the Emirates FA Cup last month, and on Wednesday night, with Guisborough trailing 3-2 in stoppage time, he went up front and fired an equaliser again to give his side a 3-3 draw.
Hebburn scored twice in quick succession through Andrew Stephenson and Ben Dibb-Fuller in the first half, before Mason McNeill pulled a goal back just after half-time.
Graeme Armstrong made it 3-1 for Hebburn, but again Guisborough pulled a goal back through Steve Roberts on 68 minutes before Nixon`s late heroics.
Shildon are back on top of the table, thanks to a nervous 2-1 home win over Whickham.
Bottom-of-the-table Whickham stunned Shildon by taking the lead when Andy Bulford crossed for Joe Mole to head home, but Shildon levelled on 27 minutes with a good shot by Jack Blackford.
Loan signing Keith Graydon then split the Whickham defence for Blackford to fire his second just before half-time.
However, Whickham nearly grabbed a point with a shot by Dale Burrell that hit the post.
Consett won at North Shields for the second time in three days - this time by 3-0 with goals by Calvin Smith, Nick Green and Danny Craggs.
Whitley Bay outplayed Newcastle Benfield by 6-1, with Jack Foalle, and Olly Martin scoring two apiece.
In the Second Division, Chester-le-Street still have a 100 per cent record, thanks to a first half goal by Jack Oliver at Brandon United.
Tow Law Town fought out a goalless draw at Billingham Synthonia, while Jarrow beat Thornaby with a goal by Paul Muir.
Redcar Athletic had a good 1-0 win over Heaton Stannington, Sam Webster scoring the goal.
