 FC United missed a chance to step up their Evo-Stik Premier promotion challenge in losing 2-1 to title-chasing Northwich.

Mike Norton's injury-time strike came too late to save the Rebels, who fell to goals by Ian Kearney and Chris Budrys.

Ashton United couldn’t hold onto a lead given them by Aaron Burns' sixth-minute penalty in a 1-1 draw at Mickleover.

Evo-Stik North leaders Curzon Ashton were grateful to Lee Blackshaw for rescuing them a point against visiting Witton Albion.

Jordan Stepien struck twice to give Woodley a 2-1 home win over Durham, while sub Ben Beresford also hit two as Salford crushed neighbours Mossley 4-1 at Moor Lane.
