Wealdstone produced an excellent second-half fightback to earn a vital 3-1 win at Cray Wanderers in the Ryman Premier on Saturday.

The Stones found themselves 1-0 down at half time after Leigh Bremner tapped in for Wanderers who were searching for their sixth consecutive home win.

But Wealdstone managed to find some inspiration in the second half which could spark them on a push for the play-offs after a miserable run since Christmas.

Callum Martin created the equaliser in the 67th minute when his cross was smashed in by Jamie Osborne for his first goal for the club.

Wealdstone took the lead four minutes later when Danny Spendlove broke away and calmly stroked the ball into the net.

The visitors completed a memorable comeback five minutes from time when Spendlove was brought down in the area and Martin fired in the penalty.

Wealdstone return home to face promotion challengers Hastings United tomorrow in another crucial match.
