There was a seven-goal thriller at the Ten Acres today, Eastleigh were the victors over Hartlepool who had lost Carl Magnay when he received his second booking just before the final whistle.

However, the league leaders Macclesfield couldn’t beat Torquay where the latter rest at the bottom of the table.

Whitehead put Macclesfield ahead in the second half before Romain was able to score the equaliser but both teams couldn’t capitalise and so no three points for the two.

Harry Pritchard bagged his brace in the same minute whilst his team-mate Sam Barratt scored the third goal that sealed their win.

Woking grinded out a 1-0 win thanks to their defender Stojsavljevic, it took three second half minutes for the home side to score against Fylde who were unable to get themselves back into the game.

Finally, Wrexham and Tranmere both went home with a point today as all the goals happened in the first half. Two goals each but both couldn’t clinch a win in the second half.

It was only Barrow’s game against Sutton that had to be postponed today as the pitch was waterlogged.
