Dan Creaney at the double as Tamworth beat bottom club Ebbsfleet

Dan Creaney scored twice as Tamworth dealt bottom club Ebbsfleet a 3-2 home defeat.

Josh Wright’s side have not won a game since September 14 and find themselves cast adrift in the National League relegation scrap, but gave themselves a fighting chance when George Moncur gave them the lead.

But a quickfire double from Creaney in the run-up to half-time, netting in the 38th and 40th minutes, set the visitors on the way to a first win in seven.

Both teams scored own goals, Alex Lankshear getting the final touch as Tamworth extended their lead before the break and Haydn Hollis returning the favour in the second half.
