The National League play-off hopes of Halifax were all but ended by a goalless draw away to Yeovil.

Home goalkeeper Jed Ward made a comfortable early save to deny Jay Turner-Cooke before keeping out a sterner test from Josh Hmami.

Ward was at his best again just before half-time to deny Turner-Cooke's curling effort.

Billy Waters then wasted a glorious chance to put Halifax ahead when he blazed over from close range before Terrell Works was denied by Sam Johnson at the other end.

Turner-Cooke clipped the top of the bar from around halfway in the closing stages as Halifax stayed five points behind seventh-placed Southend, who have two games in hand.
