MK Dons victory over Gillingham was inspired by Norwich City loanees and a former Canaries striker to help Russell Martin’s men record their first league win of the season.
Dons have recently bolstered their offensive options by recruiting former City striker Cameron Jerome. The 34-year-old opened the scoring on his first start for the club when he coolly slotted Regan Poole’s pull-back into the net.
The second goal saw City loanee Louis Thompson combine with Jerome before playing Carlton Morris through on goal - the striker confidently finished to cap off a positive afternoon for Martin’s men.
City defender Akin Famewo continues to earn rave reviews at Charlton Athletic - as he impressed once again in their 1-0 win over Wigan Athletic on Saturday.
The commanding centre-back played on the right of a three and helped the Addicks record their second clean sheet in consecutive matches.
