Albion drew 1-1 at home to Spennymoor Town.

Osset Albion gave one of their best performances of the season and were unlucky not to win the game after hitting the woodwork twice in an entertaining game.
Both sides opened the game on the front foot but the home side, with Conner Bower causing several problems, took the lead on 33 minutes when Bower beat the visitor's off-side trap to chip the ball home from a tight angle.
Both teams attacked well and both missed chances. However the home side went into the break in front.
Spennymoor opened the second half on the attack, but were unable to break down a resolute Albion rearguard.
That changed in the 60th minute when the visitors broke and substitute Michael Roberts fired home after a sweeping move.
Spennymoor then had a period of pressure but were unable to pierce the Albion defence.
The home team weathered the storm and the visitors had goalkeeper Adam McHugh to thank when he made a double save from Albion's Kane Reece and Ben Grech-Brooksbank.
The home side almost seasled all 3 points in injury time when substitute Connor McDonagh blazed a shot against the Spennymoor bar.
