Loanee Asa Hall marked his debut with a goal on four minutes although Shwan Jalal should have done better to save his header from Marc Pugh's cross.

And Guy Madjo, a capture from Crawley, scored with a fierce left-foot low drive on 31 minutes on his home debut.

Morecambe's best chance was Adam Yates' late long-range shot that hit the post.
