BBC match report –

Sean Canham's second-half strike earned Exeter a superb victory at Scarborough.

Jimmy Kelly put Boro ahead from the spot after Glenn Cronin fouled Kevin Nicholson, but Gareth Sheldon levelled with a shot into the top corner.

Tony Hackworth's long-range thunderbolt restored Boro's lead but the Grecians equalised again with James Coppinger's shot from the centre of the box.

Canham won it when he latched on to Sheldon's cross from the right to boost Exeter's play-off hopes.
