Bristol Street Motors Trophy: Wycombe win seals top spot in group
- Published
Lyle Taylor made his debut for Wycombe, having been signed in midweek
Wycombe secured top spot in their EFL Trophy group as Kieran Sadlier's goal earned a 1-0 win over AFC Wimbledon.
Sadlier scored his first goal since arriving from Bolton over the summer when he flicked a Harry Boyes shot into the Dons net with six minutes left.
Wimbledon had been awarded a first-half penalty, but Franco Ravizzoli went down to his left to deny Josh Davison.
The Wycombe keeper also produced a superb late save to tip Kai Jennings' shot over the bar and seal the victory.
They won all three groups games by the same scoreline, with three clean sheets for Ravizzoli, who has yet to play in the league this season.
Striker Lyle Taylor made his Chairboys debut, having been signed in midweek, and played the opening 45 minutes in his first competitive game since May 2022.
"It was really good to be back out there," he told BBC Three Counties Radio.
"You get to an age where being wanted is the most important thing and outweighs everything else, geographically, financially, whatever it might be.
"That's kind of where I'm at now. I want to play for someone who wants me to play for them.
"I'll do absolutely everything I can to help the team move forwards," the 33-year-old former Nottingham Forest player added.
