Barnet have given themselves hope in their battle to avoid the drop.

Striker Steve Kabba netted four second-half goals, as the Bees came from behind to see off Burton this afternoon.

Though it was only three points, this was a massive win for Martin Allen's side, as the Brewers are one of the teams Barnet have their eye on catching.

It made it four points out of six for Allen, following last weekend's draw with Chesterfield.

The way the Bees again fought back from being down highlighted the spirit Allen has instilled into the players.

It might not be all over for Barnet just yet!

Boss Allen surprised everyone by naming Jude Stirling in the line-up - just days after the club announced he was out for three weeks with a calf strain.

The other surprise was the return of Daniel Leach, the defender having been out for most of the season through injury.

There were also returns for midfielders Sam Deering, Mark Hughes and Mark Byrne.

The visitors got off to the worse possible start, with the Brewers taking the lead after just 11 minutes, Sam Winnall the man on target.

It was just what the Bees did not want, in a game in which they knew they had to win.

It was tough on the visitors, who actually thought they had taken the lead themselves early on, though Izale McLeod's effort was ruled out.

Barnet had plenty of possession and openings in the first half, but, not for the first time this season, could not convert their chances.

However, their efforts were rewarded early in the second half, when Kabba capitalised on a long ball forward to equalise for the visitors.

It was just the start to the second period that the Bees needed.

And it was to get better, when Kabba was on target again after 64 minutes, sending the travelling Bees supporters wild.

Again the goal stemmed from a ball over the top, though it was a quality finish from Kabba.

Burton were now all over the place and, just a few minutes later, Kabba completed his hat-trick from the penalty spot, sending the keeper the wrong way.

And, with ten minutes to go, Kabba hit his fourth of the afternoon to seal the points and make it a memorable day for Barnet.

The Bees are back on home soil next Saturday, when Crewe, who thumped Cheltenham today, are the visitors.
