What Happened On Tuesday Night In The National League?

By Sam Elliott

There may have only been four matches on Tuesday night but the results were significant.

It was still a telling evening for the eight sides in action as the leaders suffered an unexpected blip - and they had the heat turned up on them.

Torquay United slipped to a 1-0 home defeat to brave ten man Dagenham & Redbridge.

The Daggers had it all to do after Mitch Brundle was red-carded five minutes before half-time.

But the Londoners held onto the lead given to them by Paul McCallum to take an impressive three points home from the pace-setters.

Neal Ardley hailed his Notts County team’s self belief after beating promotion rivals Stockport County live on BT Sport.

Jake Reeves’ first-half effort took Notts back to third and Ardley beamed: “Their mentality shone through.

“I challenged the boys at the weekend to say that we’ve got one of the best teams in the league ability wise.

“Now we have to ensure we get the same performance week in, week out.”

Wrexham showed they are up for a fight this season as they came back from the dead to break Weymouth hearts.

Going 2-0 down inside 26 minutes, it looked to be a long night for Dean Keates’ side.

But Adi Yussuf, Theo Vassell and last-gasp Reece Hall-Johnson all struck to earn a huge three points.

Solihull Moors also came from behind, they beat in-form FC Halifax 2-1.

The Moors got back on track at home as Kyle Hudlin snatched the winner to keep Jimmy Shan’s side in touch.
