Woking kept alive their hopes of a third-placed finish in the National League after hanging on to beat Gateshead 2-1 at the Laithwaite Community Stadium.
The home side were in front after just three minutes when Rhys Browne headed home a corner.
Browne doubled the lead in the 11th minute when he converted from the penalty spot after Sol Nwabuokei had been fouled.
Gateshead pulled a goal back in the 64th minute through Adam Campbell’s deflected shot from the edge of the penalty area before the visitors were denied a late equaliser by Will Jaaskelainen’s save.
