Needed that, not just the performance but the margin of victory as well.
So many excellent performances - the midfield duo of Carroll and Evans, Nemane with two assists, the defence looked excellent. Offord limping out was the one blot but other than that, an excellent afternoon for Dons who are finally up and running
FULL TIME! MK Dons win it!
Done and dusted here as Dons win their first game of the season!
Harrison’s goal in stoppage time makes sure of the points!

Great run from Tripp, he’s adjudged to have fouled Ellis on the edge of the box, but the teenager goes on to blast the ball over the bar and gets booked for it
90+2 mins: GOAL: Harrison secures it
Great move again finished off as Dons surely secure the win.
Tommy Leigh released Tomlinson, he takes aim, and Harrison pokes it home!

Great from Wearne again, he’s been brilliant this afternoon, but he bends an effort just wide.

Good stop from the Dons keeper, Adu Adjei gets to it at the far post but the Brighton man keeps it out

Brilliant ball to unleash Nemane again, he cuts inside onto his left, but instead of crossing this time, he takes aim and it’s just over

Great from Wearne, chasing 40 yards and harrying the keeper, his clearance is rushed to Tomlinson, but the winger’s effort is saved by the recovering keeper
57 mins: Let off
Daniel Adu Adjei fluffs his lines dramatically, through on goal but tries to go for a curler and puts it so far wide
