Altrincham see off late Barnet fightback to end losing streak
Posted Sunday, January 07, 2024 by PA
Altrincham held off a late Barnet fightback to end a three-game winless run with a 3-2 victory over their fellow promotion hopefuls.
Alex Newby picked his spot to put Altrincham in front in only the second minute before there was a lengthy hold up due to an injury to referee James Durkin.
The hosts doubled their lead in the sixth of 10 minutes added on at the end of the first half, when Lewis Baines turned the ball home from a corner, and they were cruising when Chris Conn-Clarke’s shot deflected off Jerome Okimo to make it 3-0 early in the second half.
But Barnet pulled a goal back through Harry Pritchard with 16 minutes left before Idris Kanu put a fright into the home fans with a goal in the first minute of stoppage time.
