Ronan Curtis scored a sensational stoppage-time winner as AFC Wimbledon dented MK Dons' automatic promotion hopes with a 1-0 victory against their bitter rivals at Plough Lane.
Referee Charles Breakspear showed Michael Kelly a yellow card in the fifth minute, but Wimbledon fans wanted a straight red after the goalkeeper appeared to foul Omar Bugiel on the edge of the penalty area.
James Tilley's driven effort was pushed behind for a corner and the resulting set-piece caused chaos in the visitors' box before being cleared away to safety.
A passionate home crowd was nearly silenced after half-time when the ball was turned goalwards following a melee in the box. However, John-Joe O'Toole made a vital block to keep the game goalless.
Dan Kemp forced a solid stop from Alex Bass as both sides looked to take the lead, and either side could have won it in the closing stages.
