Rob Elliot’s Gateshead run riot and climb as much as 4th with an enormous 7-1 thrashing over Kevin Phillips’ Hartlepool United on Tuesday night time.
Hartlepool initially took the lead within the eighth minute, with Joe Gray narrowly avoiding lacking the possibility earlier than scoring with a exact end.
However regardless of Callum Whelan having a aim disallowed for Gateshead, they managed to degree from the penalty spot within the twenty eighth minute.
Luke Hannant efficiently transformed the penalty after Dajaune Brown was fouled within the field by Manny Onariase.
Within the second half, the house staff took the lead early on when Kieron Evans capitalised on a defensive error and beat Pete Jameson.
Brown then scored a header to make it 3-1, adopted by Regan Booty driving by means of a crowded penalty space to attain the fourth aim.
Brown accomplished his brace with a fragile end, whereas Whelan replicated an analogous aim to make it six with quarter-hour left.
Tom Allan added insult to harm for the guests by scoring a late seventh aim.
All SEVEN from a memorable night time on the GIS!

Gateshead interim supervisor Rob Elliot stated, per Sunderland Echo: “It was close to good and any victory in opposition to a prime staff is an effective factor. Clearly the scoreline stands out however when it’s one-all at half-time, it reveals in case you hold doing the proper issues, hold knocking on the door, keep affected person, not get annoyed, the sport does open up and that’s what occurred. I’m simply so happy and so happy with the lads.
“The mentality of this team is incredible and it was a big night for them. They (Hartlepool) brought a fantastic following and it could have been one that could have been a bit awkward in terms of the occasion but it just goes to show the group is growing and maturing because this is a young squad. I just have to make sure we reset and go again Friday because we can’t go into Friday on the back of this and not get a result.”
“He’s just a special talent,” defined the Heed boss of striker Dajaune.
“A lot of credit to Luke Clark, who has come in as a scout, because he recommended him, we watched him and I’ll be honest, I was hesitant to bring in a young lad who hadn’t played men’s football. But he scored a header against Fulham Under-21s where it was a near post header when he’s headed the ball, the keeper and the centre-back all at the same time and when I saw that desire, that convinced me. We had to be patient with him since he came in but we are starting to see the benefits of that.”

“Joe (Gray) will get a aim after which we concede a penalty, which occurs.
“We noticed out the primary half and, though they dominated possession, we went in and regrouped.

“It simply grew to become embarrassing.
“I didn't see that coming – I’m shell-shocked if I’m sincere.
“I've to offer a variety of credit score to Gateshead. Among the soccer they performed was magnificent.
“I don’t want to be too harsh on the players, we have to pick ourselves up because we are in a position where we need two or three wins to secure safety and that’s got to be our goal.”
