Notts County moved level on points with National League leaders Wrexham after Macaulay Langstaff secured a 1-0 win over Halifax at Meadow Lane.

Langstaff, who had had an early header ruled out for offside, notched the winner in the 38th minute as he punished a mistake at the back by the visitors.

Jamie Stott misjudged a backpass and Langstaff took advantage by going around goalkeeper Sam Johnson and finishing.

The Magpies, unbeaten in 19 matches, join Wrexham on 65 points having played a game more, with the Welsh outfit in FA Cup action against Sheffield United on Sunday.

Halifax slip down a place to 17th.
