Lorent Tolaj’s first-half strike proved enough as Port Vale edged out Notts County with a 1-0 victory at Meadow Lane.
The first chance of the game fell to Dan Crowley in the sixth minute when the County playmaker found space in the penalty area, but could only turn his effort over the crossbar.
Alassana Jatta was next on hand to chance his luck, but he could only put his diving header wide of the post.

After the restart, Jatta had a chance to equalise when Kellan Gordon clipped a cross in for the former to head at goal, but his effort was tipped over by Connor Ripley.
