Walsall debrief: Play-off dream revived, electrifying start and DJ on track
Danny Johnson’s dramatic late winner kept Walsall’s play-off dream alive as they beat Swindon Town 2-1 at Bescot.
Mo Faal opened the scoring in the 11th minute, before Paul Glatzel equalised 23 minutes from time.
But Johnson emerged from the bench to send Walsall to within one-point of the top seven.
Here are the key talking points from the game.
Chance seized
Missed opportunities have threatened to undermine Walsall’s play-off push.
Back-to-back defeats have prevented them from overtaking a faltering Crawley Town, but they seized the opportunity to close the gap on Tuesday evening albeit with the most dramatic of late winners.
After Crawley’s draw against Barrow, Walsall sit just one-point behind the former and three adrift of the latter.
