Torquay’s survival hopes hanging by thread after draw at Altrincham

Torquay’s hopes of avoiding relegation from the National League are hanging by a thread after they were denied a potentially priceless victory at Altrincham by a last-gasp penalty.

The Gulls had looked on course for a sixth win in seven matches when a second-half brace from veteran captain Asa Hall saw them overturn the half-time lead given to Alty by Regan Linney.

However, the visitors suffered a hammer blow in the 89th minute when home substitute Zak Goodson, having won the penalty himself, slotted home from the spot to secure a 2-2 draw for the Robins.

The result leaves Torquay three points behind Maidenhead and York and safety, with Gary Johnson’s men hosting Wrexham at sold-out Plainmoor in their final game of the season.
