Shrewsbury moved out of the League Two relegation zone following a comfortable 2-0 win at home to Cambridge.

George Lloyd and Will Boyle scored first-half goals as the struggling Shrews picked up their first home league victory of the season.

The lacklustre visitors never looked likely to rescue a point after failing to get a single shot on target during a flat second half.

Lloyd put the hosts ahead after taking advantage of a defensive mix-up after 12 minutes.

Zak Bradshaw had a long-range effort saved by Will Brook as the game went through a quiet spell.

Town doubled their advantage when Boyle headed home a Sam Clucas corner after 36 minutes.

Tommy McDermott was inches away from slotting home a teasing Clucas cross five minutes before the break.

Lloyd and Anthony Scully nearly got on the end of Ismeal Kabia's dangerous cross early in the second half.

Lloyd had a shot well-blocked by Liam Bennett with eight minutes to go as the game petered out.
