Ben Wright scored twice as Kettering recovered from a goal down to reinforce their play-off hopes against Ebbsfleet.

The visitors started well with Derek Duncan hitting the woodwork before Luis Chambers slid home the opener from close range within six minutes.

Jean-Paul Marna's floated pass was met by Wright's fierce volley to level midway through the first half.

Wright fired home from the edge of the box before Lee Harper saved brilliantly from Luke Moore to preserve the lead.
