The 3-2 win was made harder than it needed to be by Dons, who extended their unbeaten run to five games thanks to goals from Curtis Nelson, Callum Paterson and Marvin Ekpiteta.
Not really the game for individuals to shine though at the EV Charger Points Stadium, one man stood out from a Dons perspective.
Here’s how we rated the players.
5. Curtis Nelson - 7.5
Powered home his first goal for the club but should have had a second, somehow seeing his header saved. | MK Dons
6. Joe Tomlinson - 7
A strong return to the side after two months out. Offered a good outlet on the left | Jane Russell
7. Aaron Nemane - 6
Didn't get to attack much down the right, and was pegged back in the second-half before making way for a more defensive-minded Jones | Jane Russell
8. Alex Gilbey - 5.5
Nothing really stuck for the skipper in a gritty midfield scrap | Jane Russell
