Braintree Town 2 - 3 Scunthorpe United FT
Callum Roberts' late penalty earned Scunthorpe a 3-2 win at struggling Braintree and strengthened their grip on a play-off place.
It took the home side just 49 seconds to open the scoring when a ball over the top from Ben Drake set John Akinde free and he slotted past the goalkeeper.
Scunthorpe equalised in the 38th minute when Pat Jones' low cross was turned in by Leo Farrell.
Callum Roberts hit a post for the Iron, while Louis Jones pulled off a superb save to keep out Akinde's deflected strike at the other end shortly afterwards.
Scunthorpe edged in front in the 58th minute through Oli Ewing's composed finish but Walker hauled Braintree level with a close-range finish three minutes later.
Roberts, who saw a free-kick come back off the crossbar, won and scored a last-gasp penalty to snatch the points.
