Halifax get season off to winning start
Posted Sunday, August 05, 2018 by PA
Jonathan Edwards and Nathan Clarke scored the goals as Halifax opened their National league season with a 2-0 win at Braintree.
Halifax keeper Sam Johnson made a fine save on the half hour when a cross by the home side was deflected towards goal by a visiting defender.
Home keeper Ben Killip then made a superb diving save to deny Dayle Southwell whose half-volley came close to breaking the deadlock five minutes before the break.
Killip made acrobatic stop but could do little with three minutes to go to half-time when Edwards headed in from a corner.
Clarke made it 2-0 to Halifax with 25 minutes to go when he headed into the top corner of the Braintree goal from Ben Tomlinson’s corner, wrapping up a comfortable win for his side.
