Here are our Pools player ratings from the match...
9. Josh MacDonald - 5
A quiet afternoon on his return to The Shay. His only telling contribution was a cross that led to Pools’ first half penalty. Photo: Ian Charles
10. Luke Armstrong - 6
Had a few shots on target but struggled to really test Johnson in the Halifax goal. Kept going and made things difficult for the Halifax defence. Photo: Mark Fletcher
11. David Parkhouse - 5
Put a few long throws into the box which threatened to cause problems but didn’t offer an awful lot with the ball at his feet. Photo: Mark Fletcher
12. Nicky Featherstone - 7
On for Williams 46 - calmly slotted his penalty away to draw Pools level. A solid display from the bench to help force penalties. Photo: Mark Fletcher
