    Highlights from the Sky Bet League 2 fixture between Newport and Cambridge.

    James Dunne's first league goal for Cambridge earned his side a deserved 1-0 win at Newport.

    Dunne raced onto Luke Berry's pass before beating goalkeeper Joe Day with a shot from a tight angle.

    The win was the U's first away success in Sky Bet League Two since January and inflicted a fifth straight defeat on Newport.

    It was also a fourth game in a row without a goal for the Exiles, who started the brighter at Rodney Parade.

    Yet Cambridge had the better chances of the opening 45 minutes as centre-backs Josh Coulson and Leon Legge both had shots saved.

    They continued to dominate in the second half and striker Jimmy Spencer hit a post with a curling effort.

    However, Dunne broke the deadlock with a cool finish in the 68th minute.
