Macclesfield Town 1-0 Torquay United

Macclesfield Town moved up to third in the Conference table thanks to Danny Whitaker's second half goal.

The hosts had early chances as Paul Turnbull fired over and Chris Holroyd shot wide, while Malachi Lavelle-Moore headed straight at Martin Rice.

Holroyd also had a goal disallowed for offside, while at the other end Ryan Bowman saw his header blocked.

Whitaker netted his first goal of the season when he found room to fire past Rice from inside the box.

Macclesfield, who have a game in hand, are now seven points behind leaders Barnet, who were beaten in the last minute at Bristol Rovers.
