MK Dons 1-3 Bury: Shakers win again

Wednesday 28 September 2016 00:25, UK

James Vaughan bagged a brilliant brace as Bury continued their magnificent winning run with a 3-1 victory against MK Dons.

Vaughan scored twice, either side of a Ben Reeves strike, before Zeli Ismail added a third to ensure the Shakers remain second in the Sky Bet League One table following their fifth victory in a row.

Bury took the lead against the run of play through a Vaughan volley in the eighth minute following a mistake at the back by Paul Downing.

MK Dons dominated the first half and only a resilient Ben Williams kept them at bay. Reeves and Downing were both denied by spectacular Williams saves, before Nicky Maynard had his curling effort pushed around the post by the keeper.

Substitute Samir Carruthers crashed a shot against the post two minutes into the second half before Downing cannoned a headed back off the upright on the 57th minute.
