Bailey scored twice in six second-half minutes

Stefan Bailey scored twice in six second-half minutes as struggling Ebbsfleet came from behind to beat promotion-chasing Stevenage Borough.

Boro's Yemi Odubade opened the scoring when he collected a pass from Andrew Drury and smashed home a 20-yard shot.

Fleet levelled within four minutes of the restart when Magno Vieira teed up Bailey who slotted home from six yards.

And Bailey completed the comeback, meeting Peter Holmes' low cross and coolly finishing from close range.
