Adam Priestley’s last-gasp strike earned Farsley AFC a 2-1 win over local rivals Ossett Town at Throstle Nest.
The win was the perfect response to Saturday’s humbling at Lancaster City in the Evo Stik Division One North.
Priestley was involved in the first goal as he was brought down by Ossett goalkeeper Brad Dixon in the penalty area.
Aaron Hardy converted the spot kick.
Ossett, who lost David Brown and Richard Patterson to injury in the first half, responded as Chris Ovington headed home Rob Bordman’s superb cross.
A draw was on the cards until Marcus Edwards’ shot was parried and Priestley was there to score.
Referee Matt McGrath was at the centre of controversy after giving a decision that secured Scarborough Athletic a dramatic 3-2 victory over Harrogate Railway.
Railway led twice through Nathan Cartman and Lamin Colley, but Gary Bradshaw and Jimmy Beadle ensured Scarborough were level going into the last ten minutes.
That’s when the game turned sour for Railway.
Thirkell’s challenge on Bradshaw looked outside the box and Jon Maloney was also covering, but McGrath gave a penalty and also bizarrely sent the defender off.
Beadle then made the blow worser by scoring the winner from 12 yards.
In Division One South, Goole cruised to a 3-1 win at Sheffield FC – Andy Gascoigne, Tyler Williams and James Cottingham scored.
