Swindon boost play-off chances by thrashing Morecambe
Posted Sunday, March 24, 2019 by PA
Swindon thrashed Morecambe 4-0 to boost their League Two play-off hopes.
Theo Robinson, Kaiyne Woolery, Dion Conroy and Kyle Bennett were on target in a one-sided affair at the County Ground.
Swindon, who are seven points adrift of the play-off places, broke the deadlock after only 10 minutes when Robinson headed into an empty net after Conroy’s initial effort was blocked.
Morecambe should have made it 1-1 in the 18th minute when Aaron Collins was one-on-one with Luke McCormick, but the goalkeeper made an excellent save.
Woolery doubled the hosts’ advantage in the 42nd minute with a low drive that beat Mark Halstead in the Morecambe goal.
Conroy netted his first professional goal in the 66th minute to settle the contest, slotting into the far corner after cutting inside a defender.
And Bennett completed the rout nine minutes from time with a long-range strike that took a cruel bounce before passing Halstead and into the back of the net.
