Wycombe boost automatic bidWycombe gave their hopes of automatic promotion a huge boost by beating Luton 3-2 at Kenilworth Road.The visitors went ahead after three minutes when a corner was half-cleared and Sam Saunders deflected the follow-up into the net.Luton were level after seven minutes, though, as Luke Guttridge's shot was parried by Matt Ingram and Elliot Lee tapped the rebound home.Elliot Justham had to save from Joe Jacobson's ambitious free-kick but Wycombe retook the lead after 21 minutes when Luke Wilkinson tripped Matthew Bloomfield in the area for a penalty which Paul Hayes converted.Alfie Mawson made it 3-1 in the 31st minute with a superb solo goal, exchanging passes with Hayes before sweeping past Justham.Luton were back in it again five minutes before the break as Michael Harriman's far-post header was volleyed in by the predatory Lee.In the second period, Hayes shot at Justham while Wilkinson put a free header wide.Wycombe then wasted a marvellous chance, Sam Wood dragging wide at the back post, while Luton sub Matt Robinson curled well over the bar.Wood could have sewn the game up, fizzing narrowly over, but Luton sub Nathan Oduwa almost rescued a point when his fierce drive was clawed away by IngramSource : PA
