Wealdstone boost survival hopes with win at play-off chasing Altrincham

Alex Reid’s goal early in the second half saw Wealdstone climb out of the National League relegation zone with a 1-0 win at Altrincham, who suffered another blow to their play-off hopes.

Altrincham had the best chance of a tight first half when only a good save from Luca Gunter denied Alex Newby, and the visitors took the lead when Reid met Dominic Hutchinson’s cross just two minutes into the second half.

Gunter again came to Wealdstone’s rescue to deny Justin Amaluzor while Rob Lainton prevented Enzio Boldewijn from doubling the visitors’ lead.
