Tranmere   2 - 1   Yeovil

Tranmere 2-1 Yeovil

Tranmere 2-1 Yeovil

Ian Thomas-Moore and Ash Taylor scored in the second half to hand struggling Tranmere a vital win over Yeovil.

The visitors looked comfortable for much of the first-half but Thomas-Moore poked in the opener just after half-time following a goalmouth scramble.

The lead was doubled within five minutes when Taylor flicked in a Craig Curran cross from a clever free-kick.

Yeovil pulled a goal back in added time when Ryan Mason converted a penalty after Shaleum Logan felled John Obika.


Tranmere manager Les Parry told BBC Radio Merseyside:

"The first half was disappointing and I though we just didn't get going as there was no sharpness.

"We had a word with the lads at half time and told them what we thought.

"Luckily they responded and once we got the goal we seemed to pick it up and we found an extra yard."

Yeovil Town manager Terry Skiverton told BBC Somerset:

"I was more disappointed with my team in that there was no response. There was no fight, there was no determination.

"I can't remember, other than at Exeter, when we have had a good away footballing game.

"If you give two goals away every game then you're not going to win them and we can't keep clean sheets to save our lives."
