A brilliant late Danny Whitehall double saw Eastleigh make it back-to-back wins, beating Southend 2-1.
Callum Powell scored his first goal of the season to fire Southend into the lead, slotting the ball into the corner in the 22nd minute.
Ryan Hill had a chance for Eastleigh just before half-time, but his low shot narrowly went wide of the post.
Aaron Martin then had a good chance just after the break but his header was saved by Collin Andeng-Ndi.
Eastleigh equalised in the 77th minute when Whitehall spectacularly scored from just inside his own half to pull one back.
Whitehall then struck right at the death, curling a free-kick into the corner to steal three points for the Spitfires.
