Cheltenham 1-2 Exeter
Monday 1 April 2024 19:12, UK
Exeter hit back from a goal down to claim a last-gasp 2-1 win at relegation-threatened Cheltenham in Sky Bet League One.
The home side opened the scoring through Ben Williams in the 51st minute but Luke Harris levelled five minutes later and Reece Cole won it from the penalty spot in the final minute.
Exeter were the better side during a first half played in heavy rain.
Mo Eisa was close to scoring against his old club in the fourth minute, racing through on goal and slotting past Luke Southwood, only for his shot to trickle just wide, before Ryan Woods forced Southwood into a good save in the 22nd minute.
Cheltenham made a double substitution at half-time and also adapted their formation and it quickly paid off.
