(((watch online*))) Shrewsbury vs. Peterborough live online 7 April 2023
Neat build up play on the edge of the box by Shrewsbury on 24 minutes lead to Chey Dunkley getting time and space on the edge of the box. Again, similar to the Pennington earlier in the game, he failed to capitalise on the opportunity with his effort going tamely into the arms of Ripley. Just five minutes later and the hosts would again carve out an opportunity on the Shrimps goal. The ball finding Jordan Shipley at the back post who took a touch to set himself before hammering back across goal. Ripley was down early and equal to the effort to prevent Steve Cotterill’s side going ahead. Just after the half hour mark, the home side took the lead from the penalty spot.
