Posted Wednesday, August 16, 2017 by PA
Halifax's wait for their first National League goal this season continues as they were held to a 0-0 draw by Chester.
Former Shayman Ross Hannah stabbed wide from eight yards out with the first real chance of the game after four minutes.
Halifax striker Tom Denton saw a 36th-minute a header cleared off the line in what was a rare chance during a quiet opening 45 minutes at the Swansway Chester Stadium.
The visitors came close to opening the scoring in the 56th minute but a cross from substitute Josh MacDonald came back off the bar.
Chester almost stole the points in the final minute of the match but Halifax goalkeeper Sam Johnson made a stunning stop to deny James Akintunde and earn his side a share of the spoils.
