Forest Green 0-2 Barnet

Barnet took another stride towards a return to the Football League with a win at struggling Forest Green.

Forest Green made a bright start with Hugh McAuley going close and an Andrew Harris lob striking the woodwork.

Barnet took control after the break and Ben Strevens - who had a first-half header saved - nodded them in front from Richard Graham's cross.

Liam Hatch sealed Barnet's victory with a fine volley after being played in by Dean Sinclair.
