Milton Keynes Dons Edges Out Crewe in Tense Encounter
Crewe, Cheshire – Milton Keynes Dons secured a narrow 1-0 victory over Crewe Alexandra at the Mornflake Stadium in a tightly contested League Two matchday 44 clash. Despite Crewe dominating possession (65%), they struggled to convert their chances, managing only one shot on target from sixteen attempts.
Scott Hogan’s 28th-minute goal proved to be the difference-maker. Milton Keynes Dons then defended resolutely, weathering Crewe’s pressure to preserve their lead. The match was a physical affair, with three yellow cards shown to Milton Keynes Dons players (Offord, Nemane) and one to a Crewe player (Thomas). Although Crewe had a clear advantage in shots (16 to 9), their lack of accuracy and the visitors’ efficiency decided the outcome in favour of Milton Keynes Dons.
