Billy Chadwick and Chris Popov scored hat-tricks as Gateshead and Morecambe shared a thrilling 4-4 draw.
Only Truro are below these two clubs in the Enterprise National League, but the pair served up a stunning game in the north east after Keaton Ward put Gateshead after three minutes.
Morecambe turned it around to lead 3-1 as on-loan Leicester forward Popov struck twice either side of a Jack Nolan header.
