Wycombe maintain promotion push

Jon-Paul Pittman inspired Wycombe to a vital three points as they comfortably saw off Aldershot 3-0. The tricky striker created all three Wanderers goals as Peter Taylor's men moved a step closer to League One. The Chairboys eased their nerves with a fortuitous early opener as Dean Howell headed a Pittman cross against his own post, and John Akinde buried the rebound. But having been on the back foot for most of the half, the Shots came close to grabbing an equaliser when John Grant cut inside and sent a venomous drive inches wide from 30 yards. Wycombe extended their lead minutes after the break, Pittman seeing his shot blocked by Bull only for the ball to cannon in off defender Ricky Newman. Matt Phillips wrapped up the points, firing home after another Pittman cross caused havoc.
