Salford 1-0 Swindon
Saturday 19 September 2026 17:14, UK
Salford City extended their unbeaten league run to four games with a 1-0 victory over Swindon Town at Moor Lane.
A wonder strike from Joe Powell 13 minutes from time proved the difference as the Ammies stayed in touch with the League Two play-off places.
The visitors started on the front foot, pinning their opponents in their own half for much of the early exchanges.
However, despite their dominance, they failed to create any clear-cut chances, with Ollie Clarke's close-range header the nearest they came to opening the scoring.

The hosts grew in confidence as the half wore on, and Brendan Wiredu almost broke the deadlock just after the half-hour mark, only to see his effort blocked.
The Robins should have been ahead shortly after the interval when Aaron Drinan found himself through on goal, only for Ammies keeper Will Norris to deflect his effort wide of the post.
And Swindon were made to pay in the 77th minute when Powell fired home from all of 35 yards, finding the top corner and leaving Connor Ripley helpless in the Town goal.
