Cheltenham Town 3-1 Exeter City
- Published
Cheltenham extended their unbeaten League One run to four games with a comprehensive 3-1 victory over Exeter.
Second-half goals from Caleb Taylor and Alfie May sealed the in-form hosts' win after Aidan Keena's opener for the Robins had been cancelled out by Josh Key.
But a late flourish ensured Wade Elliott's side continued their fine run to further ease any relegation fears.
Exeter missed an early penalty when Luke Southwood blocked Sam Nombe's spot-kick with his legs after Ryan Jackson tripped Joe White in the box after 12 minutes.
Record signing Keena put Cheltenham in front in the 17th minute after a slip by Will Aimson allowed Alfie May to rob Jonathan Grounds in the box and tee up his strike partner for the Irishman's first EFL goal.
Exeter controlled the opening stages of the second half and deservedly levelled through Key's close-range header after Demetri Mitchell's cross from the left in the 69th minute.
But the Grecians were only level for five minutes, with Taylor powering home a header from Will Ferry's corner to make it 2-1 and Elliot Bonds supplying in-form May to complete the scoring with 10 minutes left.
