It was another thrilling weekend in the National League, with Dover keeping their spot at the top of the division with an impressive 2-0 win over Eastleigh.
Macclesfield kept pace with the leaders as they won away at struggling Barrow, while mid-table Tranmere issued a warning to their fellow promotion hopefuls with a brilliant 2-0 against Dagenham & Redbridge.

Jay Harris
Midfielder – Tranmere Rovers
On as an early sub, he was an inspiration for a Tranmere side who made a real statement with their win over Dagenham & Redbridge.
Nortei Nortey
Midfielder – Dover Athletic
An energetic display in the heart of Dover’s midfield, as the Seagulls continued their excellent run of form.
Tom Bolarinwa
Midfielder – Sutton United
Tremendous second debut for the returning Grimsby loanee, who was too good for Solihull on Saturday.
Fabien Robert
Attacking midfielder – Aldershot Town
The on-loan playmaker was a threat throughout as Aldershot edged past AFC Fylde to maintain their place in the play-offs.
Luke Hannant
Attacking midfielder – Gateshead
Two goals from the dangerous left winger helped inspire the Heed at Maidenhead.
Luke Coulson
Midfield/Forward – Ebbsfleet United
