What Happened Across The National League On Tuesday?

Wealdstone made it an incredible five wins from five to storm up to second.

Last season’s National League South champions won 1-0 at ten man FC Halifax as substitute Daniel Parish, pictured, found the bottom corner five minutes from time.

Dagenham are off the bottom after edging past Boreham Wood 1-0.

Myles Weston was the match winner - but the victory owed so much to goalkeeper Elliot Justham.

He pulled off a fine penalty save to push Kabongo Tshimanga‘s penalty onto the crossbar. It was the keeper who hauled the striker over, but he had the last laugh.
