Magpies' victory over Silkmen was one to remember

Chorley boss Andy Preece reckons supporters will remember his team's last-gasp victory over Macclesfield for years to come.

The Magpies manager labelled the 3-2 win over the Silkmen as a great advert for the National League North, especially as the match was played in progressively treacherous conditions due to incessant rain.

Craig Hewitt had scored twice from the penalty spot but on each occasion they were pegged back by the visitors.

With standing water starting to hold up the ball on the surface, the Magpies somehow found a winner with virtually the last kick of the game. Harvey Smith smashed the ball home following a goalmouth scramble to send the home fans into raptures.
