Hayter has final say for Yeovil

admin

Joel Grant’s close-range effort for the hosts cancelled out Carl Winchester’s first-half strike in a nervy clash at Huish Park, before Hayter pounced in stoppage time.

Both sides were without a permanent manager after Gary Johnson was sacked by Yeovil while his son Lee recently left Oldham for League One rivals Barnsley.

Goalkeeper Jake Kean, formerly on loan at Yeovil, was called into action twice in quick succession early on, saving from Stephen Arthurworrey and then matching Gozie Ugwu’s strike.

Oldham’s sucker-punch came one minute before half-time as Winchester rifled in a left-foot strike across Scott Loach with the Latics’ first shot on target of the match.

The Glovers pegged the visitors back after 55 minutes when Adam Morgan jinked in from the right and unleashed a ferocious strike which struck the crossbar, but the ball dropped to the feet of Grant who rolled it home.

Oldham were forced to play the last 10 minutes with men when Brian Wilson was shown a second yellow card for a crunching tackle on Morgan.

And Yeovil made their numerical advantage count in the 91st minute when Grant went on a mazy run into the box and saw his shot saved by Kean, who could only push the ball out to the waiting Hayter who could not miss.
