AFC Fylde produced the result of the day by stunning National League leaders Macclesfield Town. The Coasters struck six past the Silkmen without reply to continue their good form and climb up to ninth. Macc remain top by three points.
Aldershot Town stayed second with a draw against Ebbsfleet United while Sutton United moved level on points with the Shots by beating Dagenham & Redbridge in the early game on BT Sport.
At the bottom, Chester and Torquay United both suffered heavy defeats while Solihull Moors closed the gap on survival with a win over Woking, who remain in freefall.

Lewis Ward

Goalkeeper – Aldershot Town
A string of fine saves earned Aldershot a point against Ebbsfleet
 

Manny Parry

Defender – Dover Athletic 
A rock object at the back as Dover impressively dispatched in-form Boreham Wood
 

Dave Winfield

Defender – Ebbsfleet United
Mightily impressive against his former club as free-scoring Aldershot were shut out
 

Ayo Obileye

Defender – Eastleigh
Hugely influential defensively and then scored two goals at the other end to topple Maidstone
 

Sam Finley

Midfielder – AFC Fylde
Two goals and orchestrator of Fylde’s six-goal show
 

Ben Fox

Midfielder – Gateshead
Dream debut for the Heed in the victory over Chester
 

Adam Mekki

Midfielder – Bromley
Constant threat down the left and a goal to boot
 

Harry Beautyman

Midfielder – Sutton United
Really settling in nicely at Sutton and was behind all their best moves as Dagenham were put to the sword
 

Jermaine Hylton

Forward – Solihull Moors
Proved too hot for Woking to handle as his two goals set up another vital win
 

James Norwood

Forward – Tranmere Rovers
His opening goal and subsequent man-of-the-match show proved the difference

Played the party pooper on Save Pools Day but his two goals reignited Wrexham’s promotion hopes
 

Top boss: Dave Challinor – AFC Fylde
