Gary Madine fired a late winner as Hartlepool beat Yeovil to extend their unbeaten National League run to six matches.

Former Sheffield Wednesday and Bolton striker Madine stepped off the bench to seal all three points for Pools with seven minutes left of a game delayed by 12 minutes during the first half

A goalless first half was delayed by 12 minutes after a stadium safety concern because of high winds.

Emmanuel Dieseruvwe's penalty broke the deadlock for the home side in the second half after Tom Parkes had been impeded in the box.

Both sides continued to create chances and Yeovil levelled it up with 10 minutes left through Kofi Shaw's long-range effort.

However, Madine, a 62nd-minute substitute, then turned home Anthony Mancini's cross at the far post to secure victory.
