Swindon 1-2 Carlisle: Ray Edmondson strikes in stoppage-time for the Blues
Saturday 11 March 2023 18:02, UK
Ryan Edmondson scored a dramatic stoppage-time winner to lead second-place Carlisle to a 2-1 victory at Swindon and bolster their automatic promotion hopes.
Both teams struggled to create clear-cut chances in a first half lacking in quality in the final third.
Jack Armer came close to giving the visitors the lead, but his close-range effort was blocked on its way to goal.
Armer made amends with a superb finish to break the deadlock six minutes into the second half.
Swindon looked to have got off the hook when striker Charlie Austin headed against his own crossbar from a corner but the rebound fell kindly for Armer to rifle home from the edge of the box.
