AFC Wimbledon relegated after defeat at home to Accrington
Posted Saturday, April 30, 2022 by PA
AFC Wimbledon’s relegation from Sky Bet League One was confirmed after a dramatic 4-3 defeat at home to Accrington.
Goals from Jay Rich-Baghuelou, Colby Bishop, Michael Nottingham and John O’Sullivan proved too much for Mark Bowen’s Dons at Plough Lane.
That was despite a spirited effort in a chaotic second half that saw Ayoub Assal and a double from Jack Rudoni offer the hosts a glimmer of hope.
Left-back Rich-Baghuelou put the visitors ahead with a venomous 25-yard effort.
Bishop made it two with his 12th goal of the season, a gift courtesy of some lacklustre defending from the hosts.
Nottingham then added a third on the stroke of half-time, rising highest to meet Sean McConville’s floated corner.
Assal pulled one back from close range just after the break and a glancing header from Rudoni cut the deficit to one just two minutes later.
O’Sullivan then headed home Accrington’s fourth, before a Rudoni long-range drive brought the scoring to a close as Wimbledon’s relegation to League Two was sealed.
