    The Red Dragons ran riot as they thrashed Morecambe 6-0 in a League Two encounter on Saturday courtesy of a hat-trick from their star forward Paul Mullin. The other goalscorers were Jacob Mendy and James Jones while Joel Senior broke the deadlock with an own goal.

    Out of all the six goals, the one that stood out was Mendy's 35th-minute strike. The Gambian international received a pass from Andy Cannon on the right flank, cut into the penalty box and tore through the Morecambe defence, before finding the back of the net with a thunderous shot.
