AFC Fylde 2-2 Eastleigh
Ryan Broom scored twice to help maintain Eastleigh's unbeaten run, which now stretches to nine games in the National League.
Spitfires boss Andy Hessenthaler reflecting on the point said: “I think it was a fair result.
“The way we started the game was tremendous. We pinned them back and we got the goal.
“But Fylde are a good side. They’re young, they have very good movement and they take risks. It’s hard to stop their flow of play, but we dug in and defended really well.
“They equalised, but we responded straight afterwards with an absolutely fantastic goal. It was a sublime finish by Ryan who had an exceptional afternoon on his first start.
“It (Fylde's late equaliser) was a little bit frustrating when we were so close to getting all three points, but this was a good point and a valuable one against a decent side.
“My target when I took over was two points a game. I’ve had eight games and we’re actually two points ahead of that target with 18.
“We’ve now got to build on that on Saturday by beating Boreham Wood at home.
“We can’t afford to lose many games – if any – if we’re going to get where we want to be.”
