Barnet’s wobble in pursuit of the National League title continued as they were held to a 1-1 draw at home to Eastleigh.

After nine victories in a row up to the end of March, Dean Brennan’s side are now winless in their last three games and had to come from behind to take a point from the visitors.

Eastleigh took a 36th-minute lead through Paul McCallum after a poor back pass left the Bees in trouble, but Danny Collinge levelled just before half-time when he headed home an Anthony Hartigan free-kick.

Joe McDonnell made a couple of sharp saves to hold off a comeback, leaving Barnet four points clear of second-placed York at the whistle.
