Second-half goals from Lee Angol and Ged Garner secured three much-needed points for the Shrimps, narrowing the gap on their relegation rivals and boosting their survival hopes, ending a three-game winless streak and provided a timely confidence boost.
”It was a really good performance and I thought we deserved the points,” Adams said after the game.
“We knew this was going to be a really important game for us because we needed the three points and we were at home against a good side who we knew carried a threat.
“They had some early chances but we came through that and I think we had the better of the game, and once we scored the first goal we never really looked in trouble.
“It gave us an impetus while it seemed to shock Accrington and we really controlled the game after that. There were a lot of positives for me with the main one being the strength of our bench now.
