Sunderland (3/1) boss Michael Beale would have been desperate to get a positive result at home to Stoke.
The Black Cats had less of the ball and less attempts at goal throughout the 90 minutes but somehow held a 3-0 lead on 70 minutes but were pegged back by a Jenson Seelt OG.
They managed to hold on for a vital three points in what was the perfect scenario for this punter.
Bristol Rovers (11/4) were 2-0 up and cruising at half time before being the deficit was halved on 58 minutes by Oxford United.
The points were secured with a third goal on 77 minutes in what would be an excellent few minutes for our bettor.
Sheffield United and Brighton (11/5) met in the FA Cup and served up a stormer of a first half when the hosts battled back from 2-0 down to go in at 2-2.
But three second half goals for the Seagulls secured an emphatic victory that put them into round 5.
“Not very dramatic” I hear you say. You’re right. But it’s set to crank up now.
That’s because MK Dons and Gillingham were locked together at 0-0 as the clock struck 78 minutes.
MK Dons (10/3) took the lead on 79 minutes and looked to have made sure of the points on 88 minutes when adding a second.
But Gills got one back through Josh Walker on 90 minutes to set up a nervy end to the game but they ultimately fell short. Three goals in the final 12 minutes to save the bet.
That left the door open for Wimbledon (4/1) to be the heroes of the best – and at the biggest odds too.
An early Mansfield red card meant the bet was in danger before Wimbledon took the lead in first half stoppage time.
A Will Swan equaliser on 62 minutes was the perfect start to the second half for the punter who now needed the a home goal for a team with 11v10.
They were made to sweat for some time, with Ronan Curtis’ winner coming in the 97th minute to kickstart wild scenes in the home end – and the punter’s living room.
