Florent Hoti’s second-half goal gave Halifax a 1-0 win in their National League match at Maidenhead and extended their unbeaten run to five matches.

The Magpies made a bright start, with an early effort from Nathan Ferguson coming back off the post before Tristan Abrahams saw his long-range lob drop just over.

Jayden Mitchell-Lawson worked his way into the Halifax penalty area but goalkeeper Sam Johnson got down to save at his feet.

Halifax broke the deadlock with 20 minutes left through Hoti before Maidenhead forward Shawn McCoulsky almost grabbed an equaliser when his long-range effort glanced the post.
