Max O'Leary kept a clean sheet for Shrewsbury Town - the club's eighth of the season in all competitions - in their 1-0 win home over Sunderland in League One.

Loanees Robbie Cundy and Opi Edwards featured, defender Cundy playing the full 90 minutes while Edwards came off the bench for a run-out in the final 20 minutes.

The win came off the back of an FA Cup qualifier win over Boreham Wood, setting up an FA Cup first round tie with Maidstone.

Elsewhere, Bath City took the three points and a clean sheet with a 1-0 home win over Dorking Wanderers. Wales youth international Sam Pearson played 82 minutes at Twerton Park as he helped the Romans keep pressure on those just above them in the National League South play-off spots.

Vince Harper scored what would be a consolation goal in a bad afternoon for Gloucester City. They were beaten 5-1 in the National League North. Centre-back Harvey Smith played the first 45 minutes.

Rory Holden played 72 minutes for Walsall but couldn't prevent their 2-1 defeat to Mansfield - a fifth loss in a row in League Two - and George Nurse's Newport County slipped to a 3-1 defeat to Colchester United.
