Scarborough Athletic Back Into Play-Offs After Bennett Brace

Boro came from behind to beat Leamington on Saturday.

The Seadogs had fallen behind on 10 minutes.

However, Richie Bennett netted on 54 and with two minutes left to claim all three points.

Boss Jono Greening told SAFC TV his side were worthy winners:

"When you're one nil down for the majority of the game, it's always nice to get a couple of goals to get the three points.

"I think we should have had two penalties before they scored. The first one's definitely a penalty, apparently you can hear the noise. We were right behind it. You could see it. And the second one as well, it just takes him out from behind. The referee can't see his left arm, which chugs him down and then we obviously concede from a counter attack, which we warned the players about before the game, I think a few of the players were getting a little bit heated. A few of the staff were getting a little bit heated. We just asked the players to remain calm keep doing what they're doing. We hit the bar twice, and you think it's not going to happen. But then you get the first goal, obviously Benno gets the first goal and then he gets another goal which happens in football and he becomes the hero of the day." 

The Seadogs are seventh in National North after the victory, leapfrogging Telford.
