Stockport County

For 45 minutes AFC Wimbledon did exactly what they came to do at Edgeley Park. Then, a minute into the second half, they did something better. In the end Stockport had too much, and a crowd of 8,737 went home with the points.

Stockport had the ball for long spells before the break. They had 71 per cent of it by the finish, more than 700 passes, and ten corners. In the first half, though, it was all knocking on the door. Kyle Wootton headed wide in the seventh minute and fired just past the post from distance on 21, and Jack Diamond and Lewis Fiorini both had shots blocked in a crowded box. Wimbledon's back five held firm, and their best moment came when Jayden Stockley's header from James Tilley's cross forced a save from Oliver Whatmuff.
