Jason Walker's hat-trick helped Barrow pick up their first win in five attempts over lowly Eastbourne.

Walker buried Danny Forrest's cross in the bottom corner before heading home his second from close range.

Forrest then added the home side's third when he fired past Liam O'Brien in the Eastbourne goal.

Boro's Gary Elphick felled Walker in the area before the striker picked himself up to calmly grab his third goal from the spot.
