Bury 1-0 Shrewsbury Town

Joe Riley began his career at Bolton before signing for Bury in January

Shrewsbury will have to wait for promotion after they suffered defeat by fellow promotion hopefuls Bury.

After a cagey first-half which saw no shots on target, the Shakers took the lead when right-back Joe Riley smashed an unstoppable shot in from 30 yards.

The visitors responded but Mark Ellis's dangerous header went across the face of goal without a telling touch.

Andy Mangan saw a goal ruled out as Bury weathered late pressure to secure themselves a play-off spot.

Shrewsbury could have confirmed promotion to League One had they secured victory, and Southend not won against Newport County, but will now have to wait.

Meanwhile Bury, who have a game in hand, are four points from third-placed Wycombe, who managed a dramatic late win against Exeter.
