Accrington Stanley 2 : 3 Exeter City - Spectacular City see off Stanley
Posted Saturday, November 29, 2014 by PA
Exeter scored three spectacular goals to move level with the League Two play-off places having edged a 3-2 thriller against Accrington.
Midfielder Liam Sercombe volleyed home his first goal of the season in the 45th minute after a Craig Woodman cross.
It was two just four minutes after the break when another Exeter youth product Tom Nichols scored a solo goal from 20 yards to find the top corner of the net and make it six goals in five league games for him.
Stanley were back in it in the 65th minute with a John O'Sullivan wonder strike, as he rifled home from 25 yards.
However Exeter went 3-1 up four minutes later when Matt Grimes became the third City youth product to get his name on the scoresheet when he belted home a free-kick from 30 yards out.
But, in a breathless second half, it was game on again when Stanley substitute Shay McCartan fired low into the bottom of the net in the 73rd minute.
Stanley hunted for a late leveller but Exeter held on to end a run of four straight home wins for the Reds.
