Aaron Blair double helps Eastleigh ease relegation worries against Yeovil

Top goalscorer Aaron Blair bagged a brace as Eastleigh moved a giant step towards Enterprise National League survival with a 2-1 home victory over Yeovil.

Blair took his tally to 17 league goals for the season as the Spitfires snapped a five-game winless run to climb seven points clear of the relegation zone with three matches remaining.

Visiting goalkeeper Jed Ward denied Blair on three occasions as well as Jake Vokins before the hosts finally broke the deadlock just past the half-hour mark.

Blair notched his first goal in six games and doubled his tally in the 57th minute when curling his effort into the top corner, before Dan Ellison pulled a goal back in stoppage time.
