    Highlights of the Sky Bet League Two game between Morecambe and Tranmere.

    Morecambe secured their first home league win of the season and moved off the foot of the League Two table by beating Tranmere 2-0.

    A Yann Songo'o header and Jamie Stott finish gave the Shrimps a second win in three and piled the pressure on Tranmere boss Nigel Adkins, whose side have won just one of their last eight league games and sit two points above the relegation zone.

    The visitors started the game the better with Harvey Saunders missing a chance after just 20 seconds and Sol Solomon wasting a glorious opportunity on 20 minutes when he produced a weak finish after robbing Callum Jones of possession in the Morecambe half.

    Those missed chances were to prove costly as Morecambe scored twice in the last 20 minutes.

    Songo'o put the Shrimps ahead in the 72nd minute when Marcus Dackers' shot flew across goal and the Morecambe skipper was perfectly placed to head past Luke McGee from six yards out.

    Dackers thought he had doubled the advantage with a well-worked goal after 81 minutes but saw his effort chalked off for offside.

    The home side were not to be denied for long however as Stott made it 2-0 six minutes from time when he hammered home the loose ball after Tranmere failed to clear a corner.
