Wrexham extended their unbeaten run to 10 games in the National League with a comfortable win at Eastleigh.

Ben Tozer's fourth goal of the season gave Wrexham the lead after 18 minutes at the Silverlake Stadium.

Elliot Lee extended his side's lead during first half stoppage time.

Phil Parkinson's side remain second in the table and a point behind leaders Notts County, who won 4-3 in an extraordinary game at Maidenhead United.

Eastleigh, who suffered only their second home league defeat of the season, stay in ninth spot.

Paul Mullin and Callum McFadzean both went close early on for Wrexham while JJ McKiernan responded with an effort from distance

Tozer's superb strike from the edge of the area found the top left corner of the net to give the visitors a deserved lead.

Eastleigh responded with a good spell of their own and McKiernan clipped the top of the crossbar.

But Lee doubled Wrexham's advantage with an equally impressive effort from just outside the area.

Goalscorer Lee flashed a shot wide of the post early in the second half before his volley from the edge of the area was excellently saved by keeper Joe McDonnell.

Minutes later Mullin failed to convert Lee's low cross while Aaron Hayden headed wide from Luke Young's corner as Wrexham saw out the game comfortably.

Wrexham manager Phil Parkinson said:

"I thought it was an accomplished performance from us. Eastleigh have got a very good home record but I thought from the fist whistle we were the team in the ascendancy and got two great goals.

"We were strong and resolute when we needed to be and showed the quality which we know we've got in that final third to win us that game.

"Credit to Eastleigh for getting the game on because they put in a lot of work and effort in getting the game on - when we came here at 1.30pm the pitch was excellent.

"But very quickly as the game went on the pitch frosted over and it became more difficult as the game went on and I thought we adapted really well to that in the last 15 minutes."
