Armstrong scores the winner for Gateshead

Luke Armstrong netted a 77th-minute winner as Gateshead got their Vanarama National League campaign back on track with a 2-1 victory at Barnet.

Gateshead, looking for their first win in five competitive matches, took the lead in the 20th minute when Scott Boden netted from close range.

The visitors came within inches of doubling their advantage in the 52nd minute when Luke Molyneux fired against the crossbar and, to add salt to  Gateshead wounds, within minutes of that let-off Barnet were level.

Jack Taylor left Heed goalkeeper Aynsley Pears with no chance as he thumped home the equaliser.

It was Gateshead who would end up with the three points, though, as top scorer Armstrong drilled home his seventh goal of the campaign with time running out.

Barnet,  who dumped League One Bristol Rovers out of the FA Cup in midweek, came close to a second equaliser but Manny Duku’s header hit the bar.
