Norstar tried to hang on but, with time running out, Wein- berg produced a great leap to convert a flick-on from substitute Dan Sherman to spark wild celebrations.

Brixton boss John Nitka said: “Norstar were the better team in the first half but then we took control. Some of our football was a delight.

“We are still there and have to win against Redbridge in three weeks’ time to clinch promotion.”

Norstar manager Phil Peters said: “A 3-2 defeat is heartbreaking, but as good as we were first half, Brixton were matched us in the second half.

“We need to regroup and get a result against Woodford to put the pressure back on Brixton.”
