William Vigar gave Mark Beard’s side the perfect start with a goal after just two minutes. Tom Blackwell equalised on 20 minutes but Fletcher Holman scored on the brink of half-time to give Borough the edge going into the second half.
It stayed at 2-1 until the 80th minute when Leone Gravata popped up to secure all three points for Borough. The win lifted Borough to 17th place in the National League South table.
