Result Macclesfield 0-0 Southport
Southport were denied a first National League win of the season after failing to overcome 10-man Macclesfield.
Macclesfield goalkeeper Shwan Jalal produced a superb save to keep out Gary Jones’ penalty for Southport after Neil Byrne’s foul on Luke Foster.
Byrne then saw a goalbound header cleared off the line by Matty Challoner.
Andy Halls was dismissed on the hour for a second bookable offence before Jones struck both posts for Southport with a shot 12 minutes from time.
