Connolly’s strike not enough as Don’s unbeaten run ends

DerWIMBLEDON’S sequence of seven matches unbeaten ended last night as Derby came from behind to win and move up to twelfth in Nationwide Division One.

Neil Shipperley’s 10th league goal of the season gave the Dons an early lead but Derby equalised through Malcolm Christie to go in level at the break.

Deon Burton put the Rams ahead early in the second half and substitute Lee Morris wrapped up the win before David Connolly headed in what ultimately proved to be a consolation for the visitors.
