ALTRINCHAM 1 v BARROW 1

A strong second-half performance from Barrow gained the visitors an equaliser 7 minutes from the end, from Holt, after Altrincham had played well and led through a 34th minute goal by Finney. Both Finney and Thornley missed from close range in the second half but Rod Thornley was deservedly made Man of the Match.
