Paul Mullin’s late penalty secured another dramatic win for Wrexham after they twice trailed to Eastleigh.
Danny Whitehall shocked home fans with his opener midway through the first half, with Aaron Hayden equalising for the hosts just a minute later.
Whitehall put the Spitfires back in front, but Mullin levelled with 13 minutes remaining as Wrexham sensed another dramatic late victory.
It duly arrived when Mullin scored a penalty five minutes into injury time.
Wrexham stayed second and five points behind leaders Stockport County while Eastleigh dropped a place to 19th.
