Southend boost play-off hopes with win over Altrincham

Southend boosted their National League promotion hopes with a 2-1 win over play-off rivals Altrincham.

James Golding headed the home side in front after 14 minutes when he met James Morton’s corner.

Macauley Bonne doubled their advantage before half-time as he gathered Leon Chambers-Parillon’s pass and fired home.

Regan Linney and Alex Newby went close for the visitors after the break before the former scored a fine left-footed effort after 59 minutes but they were unable to force a leveller.
