Eight games unbeaten for in-form Brenford

Brentford extended their unbeaten league run to eight games after a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Macclesfield. Charlie MacDonald gave the home side the lead after 15 minutes when he smashed his right-footed shot in the top-right corner from close range. Macclesfield responded and should have equalised just three minutes later when Martin Gritton tested Bees goalkeeper Ben Hamer with a 25-yard effort. MacDonald should have grabbed his second of the game midway through the first half but saw his long-range effort go the wrong side of the right-hand post. Simon Yeo could have brought the visitors level just before half-time but his strike was saved by Hamer. In what was a frenzied start to the second half, MacDonald testing Jon Brain.
