Alex Meechan York 3-2 HalifaxSubstitute Alex Meechan stepped from the bench to shoot down former club Halifax Town and finally end the hosts' dreadful record in front of the live TV cameras.
Home striker Onome Sodje hit the top of the crossbar in the tenth minute before on loan keeper Stephen Henderson misjudged a speculative 30-yard shot from Anthony Griffith seven minutes later.
The visitors doubled their lead seven minutes after the break when Danny Forrest fired in following a sparkling run from Ryan Toulson.
The Minstermen rallied superbly as Paul Brayson squared the ball across for Sodje to force the ball home on 58 minutes.
Winger Martyn Woolford then crashed the ball inside the left-hand post three minutes later to dramatically equalise.
York secured their first home victory of the season when Sodje raced down the left in the 70th minute and pulled the ball across for Meechan to score the winner.
