Eastleigh substitute Vincent Harper scored both goals to help extend his side's unbeaten home record to eight matches with victory over Scunthorpe United.

Harper struck within a minute of stepping off the bench in the second half, then added another in the last minute to help lift the Spitfires up to ninth in the table.

After a goalless first half, Eastleigh twice went close to breaking the deadlock just before the hour when Andrew Boyce's header skimmed the crossbar and Michael Kelly's effort from a tight angle was saved.

But the home side's pressure told in the 68th minute, when Harper drove forward into space before taking aim and curling a superb effort into the top corner.

Scunthorpe pressed forward in search of an equaliser, but Harper got on the end of a swift counter-attack for his second to seal Eastleigh's victory and extend the Iron's winless run on the road this season.
