Salford City 1-0 Maidstone United

Salford made it four home wins on the spin by beating Maidstone United in the National League.

The hosts had the ball in the net after two minutes but Adam Rooney's effort was ruled out by an offside flag.

In a one-sided first half, Rory Gaffney planted a header over and Tom Walker and Rooney were both denied by Stones keeper Lee Worgan.

Three minutes after the restart, Salford took the lead through an own-goal from Shamir Mullings.

Jack Richards could have equalised late on but his shot was deflected off target.
