York’s winless start to the National League season continued with a 3-1 defeat to Rochdale at the LNER Stadium.

Tyrese Sinclair’s 36th-minute penalty gave Rochdale the upper hand.

York struck back on the verge of half-time as Adam Crookes headed home in the 12th minute of added time.

As the second half got under way, it was Dale who started off the better as Sinclair bagged his brace in the 53rd minute, converting from the penalty spot for a second time after Crookes received a red card.

Ian Henderson made it three for Dale late on, netting his third goal of the season.
