 A late goal by skipper Mike Norton failed to save FC United from their second Evo-Stik Premier defeat in five days as they crashed 2-1 to promotion rivals Chester in front of a 3,219 crowd at the Deva Stadium.

Norton struck with a header from a Carlos Roca corner to give the Rebels hope of rescuing a point after they trailed 2-0 at the break to a Matty McGinn penalty and a Matty McNeill goal.

Ashton United climbed to sixth with Chris Amadi scoring twice as they beat Burscough 3-2 at Hurst Cross.
