Non-league football: Frost bites in FA Cup replay at Ossett

Platt netted a goal in each half with Jon-Paul Pittman firing his seventh goal of the season for Simon Weaver’s side, who had trailed after Luke Ashworth headed the Exiles in front early on.

A dramatic ‘92nd-minute’ strike from villain-turned hero Kevin Roberts gave 10-man FC Halifax Town a gutsy point in a 2-2 draw at Salford City, watched by 2,049 fans at Moor Lane.

Roberts volleyed home to clinch a last-gasp point for the Shaymen, who had taken the lead through Scott Garner’s first goal for the club on 35 minutes.

Former Halifax midfielder Sam Walker levelled from the spot 10 minutes into the second period after Roberts was penalised for handball - with matters compounded when Danny Hone received his marching orders following two bookable offences.

Roberts then made matters worse by putting through his own net in the 73rd minute to give Salford the lead, but his eventful evening ended when he struck a fine late volley to make it 2-2.

Bradford Park Avenue prop up the table after a 1-0 reverse at Boston United, Greg Smith netting the only goal eight minutes from time.

Macauley Langstaff put Synners ahead at Ingfield after just two minutes, but Frost levelled just after the half-hour.

Matthew Cruss fired the visitors in front again just after the restart, but Alex Peterson levelled eight minutes from time and Frost struck an 88th-minute winner.
