    Highlights of the Sky Bet League Two match between Mansfield and Newport.

    Mansfield jumped back up into second place in Sky Bet League Two after a 2-0 home win over Newport extended their sensational unbeaten start to the season to 17 games.

    Davis Keillor-Dunn grabbed a goal in each half for a comfortable win over the injury-hit Exiles.

    The Stags grabbed a fourth-minute lead in a one-sided first half in which they dominated possession.

    Newport failed to clear a Rhys Oates cross from the right and Keillor-Dunn pounced on the loose ball in the area to fire home low for his 10th goal of the campaign.

    Keillor-Dunn also forced a good save out of Nick Townsend in the 17th minute after being picked out by a great ball from Lewis Brunt.

    Oates won himself a penalty after 31 minutes when he was brought down by Scot Bennett as he raced outside him, but his low central spot-kick was saved by Townsend.

    Just before the break, a Callum Johnson cross hit the top of the Newport crossbar.

    Aaron Lewis forced a save from Townsend after the break, but the keeper was helpless as a superb George Maris pass down the middle saw Keillor-Dunn sidefoot in his second from 10 yards in the 51st minute.

    Townsend denied Keillor-Dunn his hat-trick near the end as he beat away his finish.
