Macclesfield 1-1 Barnet

Nicky Bailey's late strike earned Barnet a draw despite the hosts dominating for most of the match.

The Silkmen led after 18 minutes when Kevin Sandwith's 30-yard dipping shot went under keeper Ross Flitney's dive.

Macclesfield then squandered a host of chances, with Jon Parkin blasting over the crossbar in the 56th minute.

Barnet equalised when substitute Louis Soares picked out Bailey, and he planted a header into the roof of the net from eight yards.
