FC Halifax Town 2-0 Torquay United

In-form Halifax beat Torquay at The Shay to maintain their National League promotion push.

The Gulls had an early chance from a free-kick when Ben Wynter's header was pushed away by Halifax keeper Sam Johnson, before Armani Little's effort curled just over.

Billy Waters fired the Shaymen ahead on the hour for his 15th league goal after being played through into the penalty area.

With 20 minutes left, Halifax substitute Gerry McDonagh wrapped up the points when he headed in from close range shortly after coming on following a free-kick to secure a fifth straight league win.
