Fleetwood 1-0 MK Dons: Promise Omochere makes the difference as Cod Army sink struggling MK
Saturday 22 April 2023 18:31, UK
Promise Omochere’s third goal in as many league games helped Fleetwood secure a hard-fought 1-0 victory over MK Dons in Sky Bet League One.
Midfielder Omochere fired the Cod Army into a welcome lead a minute before half-time with a close-range strike that was too good for goalkeeper Jamie Cumming.
The Lancashire hosts held on for three precious points to claim their first home win for a month and also stretch their unbeaten run to three games.
Striker Jayden Stockley headed over for the hosts as they had a good chance to take the lead.
Jack Marriott had a shot saved by Cumming, while the visitors went close to open the scoring through Mohamed Eisa, whose left-foot shot flew wide.
