Six of the best for Luton as they beat Burton
Posted Sunday, December 23, 2018 by PA
Luton made it six league wins on the bounce with a comfortable 2-0 victory against Burton.
The hosts were in front on 17 minutes when Andrew Shinnie wonderfully picked out the run of defender Jack Stacey, who chested down and fired past Bradley Collins.
Harry Cornick’s tame effort was easy for Collins, while Luton stopper James Shea bravely smothered at the feet of Devante Cole.
In the second period, Lucas Akins went close for Burton, his drive deflected behind for a corner that Cole nodded over.
James Justin’s free-kick was parried at his near post by Collins, who easily claimed Elliot Lee’s follow up, while home Shea gathered Reece Hutchinson’s low drive.
Luton doubled their advantage on 73 minutes, though, when substitute Danny Hylton was clipped in the area by defender Jamie Allen and James Collins hammered home the spot-kick.
Hylton had the ball in the net late on, only to be flagged offside as Town moved four points ahead of Sunderland in third.
