Mossley secured a 2-1 victory over Newcastle Town on Saturday, extending their recent positive run in the league. The match, played under challenging conditions of strong winds and rain, saw Newcastle take an early lead before Mossley mounted a comeback after the interval.

Newcastle Town opened the scoring within the first 15 minutes when Luca Whitney capitalized swiftly on a parried long-range shot, giving the visitors an early advantage. Both teams created limited clear-cut opportunities during a fragmented opening half, with goalkeepers on either side managing to keep their teams in contention amid weather-affected play.

Mossley showed increased cohesion in the second half as Ben Kershaw, Mason Fawns, and Charlie Frost combined effectively to apply sustained pressure. The efforts culminated in the equalizer in the 58th minute, when Fawns controlled a well-delivered cross before finishing confidently.

Ten minutes later, Mossley doubled their lead. Callum Jones’ dangerous delivery into the box resulted in a deflected chance that fell kindly to Fawns, who struck emphatically to complete his brace. Newcastle Town struggled to respond in the remainder of the match despite attempts to regain footing.

Mossley’s improved second-half performance enabled them to overturn the deficit and secure all three points, continuing their strong form in the competition. Newcastle Town, meanwhile, will look to bounce back after a competitive but ultimately disappointing outing.
