Peterborough scorer admitted he fouled Keogh

Jonson Clarke-Harris told MK Dons players he thought he had fouled Richard Keogh just prior to heading Peterborough in front at Stadium MK on Tuesday night.

The striker, who spent a month on loan with Dons back in 2015, nodded Posh in front after 25 minutes after a tussle with Keogh. The Dons defenders were furious with referee David Rock that the push went unpunished and the goal was allowed to stand, though replays suggest it would have been a soft decision.

Despite falling behind, Dons rallied and were rewarded with an equaliser 13 minutes from time from Cameron Jerome for a share of the spoils, but while they secured a point against a team in fourth place, Russell Martin was left to wonder what if.

"The goal was a foul," he said. "He's admitted it to our players and that's why he didn't celebrate it because he thought it was an obvious one.

"They had one shot and they scored. It's the first time they got properly near our goal though, and we left a good player on good form one-on-one with Richard Keogh, which we spoke about trying to stop that, but it's a foul. Our players are very frustrated by that.

"It would have been easy to lose our cool, and have a victim mentality after that but we stayed really focussed and put all our energy into what we were doing on the pitch."
