I thought the way Halifax fought and closed down was excellent and it stopped us from playing our game. Halifax also got players behind the ball, which always makes it hard for use to create chances (Worcester in the F.A Cup springs the mind).
Having said that, Stanley never gave up and fully deserved the equaliser via a cast iron penalty.
Now it's on to a resurgent Canvey Island and that is going to be another very, very hard game.
