AFC Wimbledon 1-1 Wycombe Wanderers

Striker Ade Azeez scored in injury time as AFC Wimbledon fought back to seal a late point against Wycombe Wanderers.

The best chance of a quiet first half came when Wimbledon's Lyle Taylor fired over from George Francomb's corner.

Jason McCarthy scored his first goal in professional football to give Wycombe the lead after the Dons failed to clear Michael Harriman's free-kick.

But Azeez secured a point for the hosts in added time when Wycombe goalkeeper Matt Ingram failed to punch clear.

AFC Wimbledon manager Neal Ardley told BBC Radio London:

"I think it's a fair result. Obviously Gareth [Ainsworth] won't be happy, 90 minutes in 1-0 up thinking they're protecting a lead.

"I don't think they did enough to win the game and I don't think we did enough to win the game.

"I think conditions didn't help - it was a swirling, horrible strong wind, and in the end I think we got caught perhaps playing a game that they're better at than we are."

Wycombe manager Gareth Ainsworth told BBC Three Counties Radio:

"It's almost like a defeat but I've just said to them it's a fantastic point away from home, but the performance, the work ethic was absolutely brilliant today.

"Wimbledon have been on really good form, they took a point at Portsmouth, won the three before that, so I think this is a great point for us.

"The work ethic was fantastic, the closing, some good passing in moments. I think Wimbledon had one shot on target and it went in, but that's the way it goes sometimes."
