McAlinden on the spot as FC Halifax win at Barrow
Posted Tuesday, August 27, 2019 by PA
FC Halifax kept their impressive early-season form going with a 2-1 National League comeback win at Barrow.
Lewis Hardcastle gave Barrow the perfect start with a superb second-minute strike and John Rooney and Scott Quigley had chances to double the Bluebirds’ lead before half-time.
But Halifax levelled two minutes after the break as Tobi Sho-Silva’s blocked effort fell straight to Liam Nolan, who finished calmly past Joel Dixon.
Halifax’s winner came from the penalty spot on the hour when Jeff King was felled and summer signing Liam McAlinden slotted home.
McAlinden was at the centre of things as the Shaymen chased a third, but Quigley twice threatened a Barrow equaliser before Town were finally able to celebrate victory.
