MK Dons 1-2 Cheltenham Town - Dons defeated in Papa John’s Trophy opener

Dons totally fizzled in the second half, Brown’s goal early on left them chasing but they just didn’t look like ever getting back into it.

The rest of the team is playing at a slow pace but Louie Barry still is chasing and gets a shot on goal but it’s well saved by MacDonald

Four minutes of this one to be added on

Slip from Jules, Lloyd should score but he hits the post and Oyegoke mops up.

Dan Kemp’s final involvement is to spark a move which almost gets Louie Barry in on goal, but he trips, tries to offload to Holland who can’t get it goalwards.

Kemp is replaced by Dennis for the final 20 minutes.

A messy one from MK Dons‘ perspective as Cheltenham retake the lead. Free kick is lofted into the box, Barkers heads back across the face of goal and no-one gets a boot to it to keep it out, and Brown sweeps home from about three yards out.

Cheltenham restart the game, after both sides made two changes at the interval

Callum Tripp and Nathan Holland are going to come on at the break - Kayode and Gyamfi haven’t come out for the second half

That Jules goal there has given Dons exactly what they deserve going in at half time no trailing. An early penalty saw them behind, but after that, they dominated. Chances were hard to come by, but Dons were comfortably the better side.

It’s nothing short of what they deserve. Great header from Zak Juke he’s been great so far tonight. Nice free kick for Smith loft into the danger zone and Jules climbs high to nod it home.

Dons are level!

Ahhhhhh Barry did everything right. Brilliant run, really nice one-two with Kemp, he’s through on goal and opens himself up but sends his effort wide, really should score there. MK Dons’ best chance of the game.

Since the goal, Dons have very much been the better side but are yet to really create a chance to really threaten Shaun MacDonald’s goal. Playing some nice stuff in the midfield, Ilunga and Jules also having good and lively games but not much seen of Kayode still who is chasing to no avail.

I think Oyegoke had headed against Kayode there as Smith’s free-kick is nodded back into the mixer by Tucker.

Dons finding their groove now after that early goal put them behind.

Free kick won by Gyamfi’s mazy fun, and Dan Kemp steps up to take the set piece from 25 yards, but it zips just wide of the upright

Alfie May makes no mistakes from the penalty spot, and sends Ravizzoli the wrong way to give Cheltenham the lead

The visitors have a spot kick - Grant Norton is downed by Dan Oyegoke, but maybe there was a handball in the build-up?

It’s a penalty.

Not a lot to say about it so far, all a bit patient and calm so far. Nothing much seen of Kayode in Dons colours yet, half a chance for Kemp but easy for the keeper to deal with
