York squander opportunity to go top of table after Altrincham defeat

York missed the chance to return to the top of the National League as Altrincham scored three times in the first half to claim a 3-0 home win.

Regan Linney opened the scoring after 20 minutes, receiving the ball from Alex Newby’s back-heel and guiding it into the corner.

Linney got his and Altrincham’s second nine minutes before half-time, slotting home on the rebound after George Wilson’s strike was turned against the post by goalkeeper Rory Watson.

Matty Kosylo completed the rout before half-time when he latched on to a weak back-pass and lofted the ball in for 3-0 as York remain level on points with leaders Forest Green.
