Cheltenham Town 0 - 1 Wycombe Wanderers: Scott Kashket cashes in again as Wycombe beat Cheltenham

Posted Saturday, December 31, 2016 by PA

Hot property Scott Kashket scored in his fourth successive game to hand Wycombe the points at struggling Cheltenham.

The 20-year-old netted in the ninth minute, drilling his 20-yard shot into the bottom left-hand corner of Russell Griffiths' goal following a clever lay-off from strike partner Adebayo Akinfenwa.

The promotion-chasing Chairboys dominated the first period and also had two penalty claims turned down - one for handball and the other for a challenge on Kashket who was instead booked for diving.

But Cheltenham regrouped after the break and created a string of chances in the second half.

Harry Pell headed a corner just over the target within a minute of the restart before substitutes James Dayton and Amari Morgan-Smith went close.

With 11 minutes to go, Dan Holman drilled a low shot goalwards on the turn only to be denied by a fine save from former Robins goalkeeper Scott Brown.

And the visiting shot-stopper was twice called on in injury time to keep out long-range efforts from Dayton and Rob Dickie as Wycombe held on for victory.
