Jay Harris' late strike gave Wrexham victory at rival Blue Square Bet Premier play-off hopefuls Mansfield.

Wrexham had taken the lead when Mathias Pogba rammed in an Andy Morrell header.

But Louis Briscoe equalised from long range when Harris was unable to clear a cross and Tyrone Thompson put Mansfield ahead when a blocked shot fell kindly.

Wrexham levelled when Morrell headed in Harris' ball from close range before Harris, who had just struck the bar, blasted home a 25-yard winner.

The victory was the Dragons' fifth in a row, equalling their best run under manager Dean Saunders.
