Eastleigh opened their Vanarama National League campaign with a 2-0 win at Maidenhead.

The Spitfires went ahead through an own goal from Maidenhead defender Will De Havilland in the 32nd minute.

Jake Vokins soon doubled the lead when his long-range free-kick dropped into the corner of the net.

Maidenhead looked for a way back into the match in the second half as Kevin Lokko saw his long-range effort saved by Eastleigh goalkeeper Joe McDonnell.

Referee Jamie O’Connor had to be replaced by the fourth official for the closing stages as he was forced off by a calf problem, with Lokko then sending a late header over.
