Chesterfield substitutes Kristian Dennis and Dan Gardner sunk managerless MK Dons and lifted Chesterfield off the bottom of the League One table after a roller coaster second half.

The Dons looked finally on course for their first home league win of the season when they struck twice in six second half minutes.

Daniel Powell and substitute Ryan Colclough eased a night of mounting frustration in front of goal against the Spireites by turning a 1-0 deficit into a 2-1 lead after 73 minutes.

But defensive frailties enabled Danny Wilson's visitors to clinch their first away league win of the season as Dennis lifted a shot high into the net before fellow replacement Gardner tapped in an 80th minute winner.

Dons dominated possession and chances from the first whistle only to fall behind after goalkeeper David Martin tripped Reece Mitchell. Former Don Jay O'Shea confidently slotted home the 32nd minute penalty.

Lively Kieran Agard smashed a shot against the post as Dons missed a host of chances before the late drama.
