Colchester 1-2 Salford
Salford grabbed their first away win of the season as Colchester’s home woes continue.
It was fairly harmless at the Community Stadium, with neither side scoring in the first half.
The visitors took the lead just after the hour when Kilian Kouassi nodded across goal for Kelly N’Mai to finish at the far post.
Danny Cowley pressed the changes for Colchester and substitute Harry Anderson equalized at the second time of asking after his first effort was saved by Jamie Jones.
But that was far from the home side’s sign to go on as Kouassi found space on the edge of the area 13 minutes from time and his shot deflected off Mandela Egbo to beat Matt Macey.
It’s just 10 wins from 41 home games for the Essex side now and they are six without a win this season.
For Salford, it’s back-to-back wins, three unbeatens and signs that things are starting to pick up for Carl Robinson.
