Wealdstone secured a vital 3-1 away win at Boston United on Wednesday night. The victory, which came after a key penalty save, moves the Stones clear of the National League relegation zone.
Boston United suffered their third defeat in four games. The hosts were left shell-shocked after Wealdstone scored twice in two minutes to wrestle three points away from them.
Goalkeeper Dante was the hero early in the second half, saving a spot-kick. "I knew I had to stay big and make myself as large as possible," Dante said after the match.
The save proved the turning point. Wealdstone's quick-fire double shortly after secured the three points and a key boost in their battle for survival.
That result is part of a recent upturn, with the team's last five matches yielding three wins and two defeats. Wealdstone currently sit 19th in the National League with eight points from eight games played.
