Swindon 3-2 Tranmere: Town earn stunning comeback win
Saturday 18 August 2018 18:57, UK
Swindon were rescued by Joe Romanski as they fought back from two goals down to win 3-2 against 10-man Tranmere at the County Ground.
Jonny Smith and James Norwood fired Rovers ahead after just 13 minutes, but Town responded through goals from Elijah Adebayo, Marc Richards and Romanski after Jay Harris' sending-off.
The visitors needed just eight minutes to take the lead through Smith when he tapped in at the back post.
Tranmere doubled their tally with Norwood managing to slip his effort past Swindon goalkeeper Lawrence Vigouroux.
However, Rovers were then reduced to 10 men due to Harris' needless challenge on Martin Smith in the middle of the park.
