Jack Stevens scored a brace as promotion-hopefuls Solihull beat Gateshead 3-2 in the National League.

Ben Worman sent the Heed in front just three minutes in after smashing the ball home from a blocked cross.

The Moors pulled one back in the 22nd minute when Tahvon Campbell chased down a long cross, tucking the ball in at the near-post before Stevens put the visitors ahead after slotting the ball in the far corner.

Stevens earned his brace from the penalty spot to extend Solihull’s lead in the 56th minute, firing home to the left, and the Heed threatened a comeback when Dajaune Brown scored in the 86th minute, but the Moors held on to see the game out.
