Ali Gerba hit a brace as MK Dons cruised past Cheltenham, despite having to play an hour of the match with 10 men after Willy Gueret was sent off.

Gerba put Dons in front with a shot from 12 yards, before Gavin Caines equalised with a header.

Gueret was dismissed for violent conduct before Sam Baldock powered home a penalty, conceded by Lloyd Owusu.
