Ghana and Swindon Town goalkeeper Jojo Wollacott recorded an assist for his side as the Robins defeated Sutton 2-1 at the County Ground on Tuesday night.
Goals from English forward Josh Davison and Harry McKirdy rendered Joe Kizzi's first-half strike a consolation as the Robins recorded their third win in the last five games.
After enduring a 3-1 humbling at the hands of Exeter, Swindon returned to winning ways after posting a one-nil win over Oldham.
Wollacott's side entered the matchday 37 clash against Sutton with only one aim - victory. And it came as little surprise when the home side broke the deadlock after just 14 minutes.
