Odin Bailey's late goal helped Stockport extend their lead at League Two's summit with a 1-0 win against AFC Wimbledon.
The play-off chasing Dons could have gone ahead but James Tilley missed from the penalty spot at Edgeley Park and substitute Bailey netted as full-time neared to put league leaders County four points clear.
James Ball scored early for the visitors but referee Lewis Smith had already stopped play for a foul.
County's first chance fell to Paddy Madden just before the half-hour, firing at Alex Bass from a corner.
The visitors won a penalty when Fraser Horsfall fouled Omar Bugiel but Tilley blasted wide 10 minutes before half-time.
