Halford nets for Mossley

NON-LEAGUE FOOTBALL:

MOSSLEY enjoyed a comprehensive 4-0 win at previously unbeaten Farsley in Evo-Stik League Division One North.

The Lilywhites broke the deadlock with 24 minutes on the clock when Sam Hind fed new signing Adam Mather, who converted from close range.

Five minute before the interval Steve Halford's side doubled the lead through Chris Rowney.

Halford got in on the act three minutes after the interval, powering in a header.

And Mossley rubbed salt in the wound in the dying minutes, Ben Richardson tapping home Jay Gorton's delivery.



MATTHEW Russell slotted home two penalties as Chadderton came from 2-0 down to win 3-2 at Eccleshall in Vodkat North-West Counties League Division One.

Paul Buckley's side were in trouble when Thomas Loraso netted for the home team after 21 minutes and Daniel Jones followed suit 90 seconds later.

But Russell pulled back a goal from the penalty spot almost immediately after a handball, and he repeated the feat a minute into the second period, dusting himself down after being felled in the area.

Winger Paul Socha curled in the winner with six minutes remaining.
