Sam Nombe’s double, Dan Crowley, Jack Sanders, Ben Wiles and Harvey Araujo’s own goal put the Dons in total control.

MK Dons made it five wins in six Sky Bet League One games after thumping Burton 6-2 at Stadium MK.

Dan Crowley, Sam Nombe’s brace, Jack Sanders, an own goal from Harvey Araujo and Ben Wiles won the match, with Emeka Adiele and Kain Adom scoring consolations.

The Dons scored after nine minutes as Sam Silvera picked out Crowley, who found the bottom corner.

Nombe won the ball and charged into the box before scoring the rebound after Corey Addai saved his first shot in the 39th minute.

MK Dons grabbed a third after 51 minutes as Sanders swas quickest to react after Addai denied Charlie Goode.

Burton scored two minutes later when Adiele scored a firm first-time strike. But the home side restored their three-goal lead shortly afterwards as Nombe’s cross went in off a combination of Callum Paterson and Araujo.

Nombe’s second came in the 67th minute when he received Alex Gilbey’s pass and scored via a post.

Wiles added another with a fine turn and shot after 78 minutes, with Adom’s long-range strike three minutes later proving a mere consolation.
