Promotion-chasing Tadcaster Magnets dropped their first-ever points since joining the York Minster Engineering Football League as they were held to a 1-1 draw at F1 Racing.

Magnets missed a last-minute penalty as the share-all ended a run of 27 consecutive wins for the division three hopefuls.

Neil Yeowart gave F1 Racing the lead, but they conceded an own goal to level the game.

That result helped Fulford extend their lead at the top of the table as they beat Wheldrake 3-0.

Their unbeaten run now stands at five matches thanks to goals from Sam Pepper, Ash Hope and Dave Warner.

Selby Olympia recorded their sixth draw of the season as they shared six goals with hosts Ouseburn.

Ben Jones, Lance Cameron and an own goal accounted for Ouseburn’s tally.

Elvington Harriers registered a first home win since the opening day as they defeated Civil Service 3-1.

Luke Dove (2) and Neil Alexander hit first-half goals for the Harriers, with Ross Dixon replying for the visitors.

Barmby Moor hit a goal in each half, through Steve Mouncer and Shaun Webster, to defeat Rufforth 2-1 and push their unbeaten home run to eight games.
