Sheffield Wednesday came from behind twice to thrash struggling MK Dons 5-2 at Hillsborough and return to the top of League One.
Michael Smith scored twice with Josh Windass, Lee Gregory and George Byers also on target while Jonathan Leko and Mohamed Eisa netted for the visitors.
Leko struck in the second minute with a superb shot on the run from around 25 yards out but Windass equalised in the ninth minute, getting on the end of a long ball and dinking the ball over the advancing Jamie Cumming in the visitors' net.
Eisa put MK Dons back in front on 24 minutes, latching on to a loose ball before getting into the area and slotting past Owls keeper Cameron Dawson.
Smith equalised from the penalty spot in the 54th minute after Tennai Watson was penalised for handling the ball following a long throw into the area.
Substitute Gregory put the hosts ahead with a tap-in after Windass found him unmarked on 64 minutes.
Smith scored his second of the afternoon 10 minutes later with a deflected shot, the ball looping over Cumming before Byers rounded off the scoring with a header a minute from time.
Wednesday go back to the top of the third tier on goal difference after Plymouth drew 0-0 at home against Fleetwood.
