Exeter 3-0 Leyton Orient

  • Published

Liam Sercombe kept Exeter City's slim hopes of League One survival alive after he struck twice in their 3-0 win over Leyton Orient at St James Park.

Jake Taylor got Exeter off to a great start as he bundled home a ball from Alan Gow in the fourth minute.

Sercombe sealed the win with two goals in three minutes around the hour mark.

His first was a right-footed half-volley after a corner was not cleared, and the second saw him shoot on the turn from deep in the box.

The win was Exeter's first since they beat Bury 3-2 on 18 February at St James Park.

VIEWS FROM THE DRESSING ROOM

Exeter City manager Paul Tisdale told 91热爆 Radio Devon:

Relegation would be 'heartbreaking' - Tisdale

"We dominated start to finish and played like a team three places from the top of the league, not the bottom of the league

"I'm not going to get carried away with one good performance, it's been in us all year and we haven't found it enough.

"I'll always encourage the team to play, we'll see what happens over the next few games and see if we can continue to do it.

"All I get is comments of encouragement from the supporters and the players should realise how lucky they are to play for this team."
