Stalybridge Celtic were massively unlucky not to chalk up an away victory at FC United in the Vanamara National League North after they conceded a goal in the last minute of the game.

 

It was end to end stuff in the first thirty minutes with both sides having chances. Andy Bishop came closest for Celtic in the vearly period narrowly heading the wrong side of the post.

 

Eventually Celtic made a breakthrough when Matty Hughes picked his spot and smashed the ball home from ten yards out. FC United equalised shortly afterwards with a deflected goal leaving the score 1-1 at half time.

 

Celtic started the second half with pace and pegged FC united back in their#r half. It wasn't long before Celtic took the lead again through Wilkind#s who dribbled his way through three defenders before findind the net with a low hard shot. They nearly went 3-1 up when Dunbar lobbed the FC keeper only to see his shot bounce back off the woodwork.

 

Stalybridge looked to be heading for victory until George Thomas scored from a well hit free Kick in the last minute of injury time for FC United. Three points would have been very useful in Celtic's relegation fight, despite being unlucky not to win they had to settle for a 2-2 draw
