FC Halifax Town 1-1 Aldershot Town

Halifax's slim hopes of winning the National League were ended by a 1-1 draw with Aldershot.

Martin Woods gave the Shaymen hope of overhauling leaders Stockport with a superb 25-yard effort after 59 minutes.

But Mikael Ndjoli levelled three minutes from time to ensure that Halifax must settle for a play-off place.

Both sides went close to opening the scoring just before half-time with Sam Johnson making a fine save to deny Ndjoli.

Halifax broke quickly from that escape and Martin Woods, Matt Warburton and Billy Waters all went close to scoring in the same attack.

Warburton had almost given Halifax the lead from a free-kick.
