Taelor O’Kane scored a stoppage-time equaliser as strugglers Fylde claimed a 2-2 National League draw with Halifax at the MBi Shay Stadium.

The away side broke the deadlock half an hour in when O’Kane headed in at the back post to make it 1-0.

Halifax turned the game on its head in the second period when Jack Hunter equalised just after the hour mark before Rob Harker smashed the ball home from inside the box.

Danny Whitehead was sent off for Fylde with four minutes remaining, while the decisive moment came deep into stoppage time when O’Kane was on hand to nod home his second header of the night to snatch a much-needed point for the second-bottom side.
