Scarborough Athletic extended their unbeaten run with a hard-fought victory over Farsley Celtic.

Farsley levelled from a handball penalty on the hour, but Harry Green kept up the Seadogs' run of late winners. With six minutes left, the former Middlesbrough and Whitby Town winger swerved one into the roof of the net, from distance, to secure a 2-1 Scarborough victory.

Here are Boro's goals:
