Macclesfield 2-1 Port Vale: Paddy Osabede strike earns victory for Silkmen
Saturday 12 October 2019 18:19, UK
Paddy Osadebe hit the winner as Macclesfield came from behind to beat Port Vale 2-1 at Moss Rose.
The midfielder swept in his fourth goal of the season midway through the second half to break the hosts' seven-game winless league run.
Richie Bennett's fifth of the season had put the visitors ahead on 12 minutes, out-muscling Miles Welch-Hayes to reach David Worrall's free kick and power a firm header past Owen Evans.
Macclesfield wide man Theo Archibald had brought decent saves out of Vale goalkeeper Scott Brown as they pushed to get back on terms before the break.
And the Silkmen deservedly levelled shortly before half time through Arthur Gnahoua, who collected Corey O'Keeffe's pass and drilled into the bottom corner for his second goal in as many games.

Macclesfield were by far the better side in the second half and made their dominance pay when Osadebe completed a fine passing move to hit the winning goal from Welch-Hayes' pull back on 64 minutes.
Vale went close to snatching a point but Leon Legge and Bennett both cleared the bar and Macclesfield saw out the win.
