LLOYD LEADS TEN-MAN SHREWS TO STUNNING WIN OVER STAGS

The hosts secured back-to-back home wins for the first time since November 2023, while the Stags have now lost five games in a row. Will Evans opened the scoring for the visitors early on after converting from close range. On the halfhour mark, Toto Nsiala was shown red for bringing down Lee Gregory on the edge of the box. However, Shrewsbury turned it around in the second half, with goals from John Marquis and Lloyd.
