Struggling Barnet dealt a further blow to Boreham Wood’s National League play-off prospects with a 1-0 win at The Hive.
Ephron Mason-Clark pounced on a defensive mix-up to grab the only goal after 13 minutes and leave the visitors still searching for their first win since the end of their FA Cup heroics.
Reece Grego-Cox came close to adding a second for the hosts, who were in the mood to build on their 6-0 thrashing of bottom club Dover at the weekend.
Barnet goalkeeper Aston Oxborough made a superb save to deny Josh Rees and was also called into action to stop a curling effort from Tyrone Marsh before the break.
The visitors continued to press after the break, with Jacob Mendy among those coming close, but the Bees held firm for a win that moves them further clear of the drop zone.
