Prescot enjoyed most of the possession and created more chances in this Unibond Division One North match - Warrington had the strikers to finish off the job. Phil Green's indecision with only keeper Mottram to beat cost Prescot dearly.

Town's first goal came from a sweeping move in the 19th minute. McCarthy's chip eluded a stretching Paxton.
In the 36th minute Salmon latched onto a through ball and whilst under pressure fired a shot into the corner.

Efforts by Cooney, Couch (off the bar) and Wright (cleared off the line) summed up Prescot's day.

A few minutes into the second period, Town's Kennedy was dismissed for a tackle when the last line of defence. Karl Brown then hit the bar when the net seemed easier. Green had a goal disallowed.

Dale Wright's shot hit the back of Town defender, the ball deflected straight into Mottram's hands.Seconds later a Warrington free kick was saved by Paxton only for the ball to arrive at O'Donnell's boot and he made no mistake in the 89th minute.
