Yeovil 2-3 Hartlepool

Joel Porter scored twice as Hartlepool produced a fighting display to earn a narrow win at fellow strugglers Yeovil.

Yeovil had a dream start when Jon Obika set up Gavin Tomlin to score, but Pool levelled when Porter was fouled and he scored from the resulting penalty.

Porter put Hartlepool ahead, heading in Andy Monkhouse's cross, but Andros Townsend's free-kick levelled it up.

However, the visitors were not to be denied and Daniel Nardiello headed the winner from another Monkhouse cross.
