Yeovil saw more of the ball from the off, but found it difficult to play through an organised and disciplined Halifax well aversed in setting up to frustrate teams away from home.
Halifax tried to get wing-backs Angelo Cappello and Adam Senior high and wide when in possession, but couldn’t really string together much cohesive football early on, at least not close to the Yeovil goal.
However, had Billy Waters taken a golden opportunity inside the opening 20 minutes, it would have been approaching textbook away performance territory.
He failed to beat Ollie Wright one-on-one though from Will Smith’s excellent through ball: what was Chris Millington saying again in midweek about his side taking their chances?
