George Donnelly earned Macclesfield a vital point with the last touch of the game as they drew 1-1 with relegation-threatened rivals Plymouth.

Former Argyle striker Donnelly converted a Marcus Marshall cross with a neat header to earn Macc only their second point from the last 10 games. On-loan Sunderland playmaker Conor Hourihane had given the Pilgrims the lead with a 71st-minute strike. Macc skipper Matty Hamshaw brought the game to life in the 35th minute with a fierce drive which skimmed the bar. Three minutes later, Colin Daniel was again inches over for the home side with a 20-yard volley. Ben Futcher should have put Macc ahead after 55 minutes but slid the ball wide from eight yards and Argyle keeper Jake Cole then produced a stunning fingertip save to tip a Hamshaw drive over the bar. Hourihane sent a 25-yard inches wide in the end-to-end contest but in the 71st minute, he lashed a 15-yard volley through a group of defenders which on-loan keeper Richard O'Donnell could only palm into the roof of the net to give the visitors the lead. But Donnelly had the final say at the death to earn a share of the spoils.
