Josh Hmami converted an added-time penalty as Halifax snatched a 1-1 draw at home to Woking in the Enterprise National League.

Harry Beautyman put the Cards on course for victory at the Shay by scoring from the spot with 21 minutes to play.

But Neal Ardley’s visitors were pegged back a minute beyond the 90 when midfielder Hmami kept his composure to score from 12 yards at the other end.

Halifax had almost edged ahead in the closing stages of the first half but Woking’s on-loan Reading goalkeeper Tom Norcott produced a fine stop with his feet to deny Jamie Cooke.
