Half time Notts 1-2 MK Dons


Notts picked up the game in the second half but they had to wait up to the 87th minute for things to start when a shot from Ross was well saved or some say it hit the post.


This seems to wake the crowd up and the players notched it up a level. Notts got a point when Hunt got his first goal for the club on the 91st minute, some will say that the dons got what the deserved for time wasting during the second half.


Notts nearly managed to get all 3 points when a shot from Mendes hit the bar/post but rebounded out and the dons rushed up the other end of the pitch and Deeney had to save from Wilbraham.

In the end it was a point well earned and don’t forget the Magpies are only 7 points off the play-offs so is it really over for another season? We will have to wait and see.
