Morecambe vs MK Dons - LIVE

7 mins: Another close call

Ooooh, Jordan Slew's effort deflected just over the bar for a Morecambe corner

8 mins: Corner dealt with

That corner is easily dealt with by Lewington who gets it away and Dons can gather themselves after a couple of mad minutes

9 mins: Dean fluffs his lines

He might have seven in nine, but Max Dean taking aim there wanted to bend it around the defender, but it couldn't get it to curl and it's well wide

12 mins: Payne's effort deflected

Great move from Dons, Tomlinson and Dean combine for Payne to have a go from the edge of the box, but it's deflected just wide

19 mins: Settled down

The game has settled down a little bit after that action-packed spell earlier.

Dons look good when they get on the ball, Morecambe meanwhile are threatening too when they get on the front foot

22 mins: A little break

Break in play here after Jordan Slew goes down injured. It has been a frantic half so far, but neither goalkeeper called into action as yet.

30 mins: Time is flying

For all that not a lot is happening, time is flying by here. Not that the game is a bad one, far from it, just isn't bearing any chances at either end

31 mins: GOAL! That man again!

He might not have had much of a sniff so far, but when that chance comes along, Max Dean takes it.

Put through by Gilbey's defence splitting pass, Dean races onto it, rounds keeper Adam Smith and cool as you like, rolls it home!

MK Dons are in front

Dean has the ball in the net again, but only after Alex Gilbey's shot was deflected towards Tomlinson, who is flagged offside.

The striker lashed it home anyway and wheeled away in celebration, but had it quickly cut short, much to the delight of the home fans

41 mins: Williams into the book

On his return from suspension, MJ Williams picks up another booking, this time for a late lunge on halfway
