FC Halifax Town v Maidenhead United LIVE

Town kept out the first shot and blocked the rebound, but Barratt lashed home the loose ball

Maidenhead are level on the hour mark - Sam Barratt

Corner falls to Warburton on the edge of the box but he slices it over

Great play by Warburton to release Slew, whose shot at an angle is turned behind for a corner

It was perhaps only a matter of time but referee Paul Marsden very much centre stage at the moment for fouls given or not given

At the other end, Waters beats the Maidenhead keeper to a long ball and Town fans want a foul as he goes to ground

Big chance for Kelly saved by Johnson after Bradbury couldn’t get the ball out of his feet and Maidenhead broke

Town fans and bench want De Haviland booked for a tackle on Waters, while Maidenhead are moaning about what they think was a foul by Senior on the edge of the Town box that wasn’t given

Again, nice idea just not executed right as Warburton’s reverse pass to Waters just evades him and goes for a goal kick

Summerfield just overhits his pass to Waters, shame, nice idea
