FC Halifax Town 2-0 Aldershot Town

  • Published

Second-half goals from Harvey Gilmour and Milli Alli earned Halifax a hard-fought win over Aldershot at The Shay.

The hosts were fortunate to reach half-time level after former Town striker Tahvon Campbell went close from long range and Henry Ochieng's effort was grabbed by keeper Sam Johnson.

But Halifax had more success in the second half, with Rob Harker going close before Gilmour opened the scoring on 64 minutes following a goalmouth scramble.

Shots keeper Luca Ashby-Hammond kept his side in with a chance as he produced fine saves to deny Jamie Cooke and Luke Summerfield.

However, Halifax grabbed their second deep into stoppage-time from a counter-attack following a Shots corner, and Alli rolled the ball into an empty net with Ashby-Hammond stranded upfield.
