Stevenage 3-2 Exeter

Dino Maamria scored twice to secure a hard- fought victory for Stevenage.

Anthony Elding struck his 10th of the season, heading home a Dannie Bulman cross, to give the home side the lead.

But Exeter's Steve Flack smacked in a 20-yard effort to level in time added on in the first half and netted again within 75 seconds to turn it around.

George Boyd's free-kick found Maamria, who headed Stevenage level and Maamria produced a superb overhead kick to seal victory seven minutes from time.
