Luke Norris struck a late winner as Stevenage revitalised their promotion push in League Two with a dramatic 3-2 victory at AFC Wimbledon.
Just like their hosts, Stevenage had not won in five league games and looked set to be denied by Ali Al-Hamadi’s double, but they were able to lift themselves back up to second in the table.
Stevenage goalkeeper Toby Savin made good saves to deny Josh Davison and Al-Hamadi but was at fault as Wimbledon took the lead when he missed Armani Little’s cross, with the ball rolling in after hitting Al-Hamadi.
The Boro were much improved after half-time and turned things around with two goals in six minutes as Carl Piergianni headed in Jake Forster-Caskey’s cross before Kasey McAteer’s own goal put them ahead.
The Dons rallied and levelled after 74 minutes when Al-Hamadi scored at the second attempt after somehow hitting the bar from close range.
But Norris proved to be the match-winner with seven minutes left when he finished firmly into the bottom corner after Dan Sweeney had flicked on Forster-Caskey’s free-kick.
