Penrith scored a last minute winner to beat Horden 2-1 in their Northern League First Division clash.
It lifted the Cumbrians to sixth place in the table, just another win off second spot.
Horden are sixth bottom but visited Cumbria in good heart after an FA Cup win in mid-week.
They thought they had taken the lead early on but Mark Stephenson saw his header disallowed.
It didn’t take Penrith long to capitalise as they went in front on 27 minutes when Craig Wilson was put through to drill the ball home into the bottom corner.
Horden enjoyed a good spell of pressure in the second half and home keeper James Holland had to produce two excellent stops.
But 11 minutes from time Holland was beaten by a clever, solo effort from Craig Hubbard and a draw looked the likely outcome.
But right on 90 minutes Robinson popped-up to force the ball home from close range and earn Penrith all three points.
