Eastleigh strengthened their National League play-off push with a 3-2 victory over mid-table Altrincham.
The hosts were two up inside 10 minutes, with the first a nightmare moment for the Altrincham defence as James Jones’ back-pass caught Oliver Byrne off guard and the ball rolled into the net.
Kairo Mitchell then grabbed a second before Jordan Hulme pulled one back in the 29th minute, heading in the rebound after Eddy Jones had seen a shot saved.
Christian Maghoma looked to have made the points safe with Eastleigh’s third in the 75th minute, and a second from Altrincham through Eddy Jones came too late.
