BBC match report –
Sean Devine scored two late goals as Exeter snatched a dramatic victory.
David McNiven converted a Michael Price corner for Leigh while Dean Moxey equalised from Alex Jeannin's corner.
Devine put away a Moxey cross after 89 minutes, but in the second minute of stoppage time Neil Durkin headed home an Andy Roscoe corner for Leigh.
But Roscoe then conceded a free-kick in a dangerous area and Devine pounced on Scott Hiley's free-kick to net a vital 21st goal of the campaign.
