Maidenhead came from behind to earn back-to-back National League wins and boost their survival hopes with a 3-2 victory against Eastleigh.

Eastleigh took an early lead just four minutes into the game through Solomon Nwabuokei, who tucked the ball underneath Craig Ross and Chris Maguire doubled their lead 11 minutes later with a curling effort into the bottom corner from just outside of the box.

Maidenhead pulled one back seven minutes after the break when a quick free-kick reached Ashley Nathaniel-George who played across to Will De Havilland to tap in.

They then equalised in the 70th minute when Jayden Mitchell-Lawson’s cross deflected into the net off Eastleigh midfielder Nigel Atangana and Shawn McCoulsky headed home to claim the three points.
