Forest Green keeper Joe Wollacott had an unhappy match against Newport

Newport County took advantage of blunders by Forest Green Rovers goalkeeper Joe Wollacott to move into second in League Two.

Wollacott gifted the visitors a fourth-minute goal when he dawdled with the ball at his feet, allowing Josh Sheehan to feed Padraig Amond for the opener.

The keeper compounded his mistake just before the half-hour when he was sent off for bringing down Tristan Abrahams.

Ryan Haynes added a late second goal to secure victory for the Exiles.

Newport manager Michael Flynn told BBC Sport Wales:

"We were excellent today, very professional out of possession, but in possession I thought we were a little bit sloppy - we were looking for the killer pass too much whne we should have been patient.

"You always know against 10 men they've got nothing to lose and they are going to have a go at you the last 20 minutes.

"That's what they did and where we were sloppy and losing the ball that was giving them the chance to counter."
