Elliot Lee gives the Hatters a dream start in the 2nd minute when he stabs home Pelly-Ruddock Mpanzu's shot. Southend think they've found an equaliser when Tom Hopper's header nestles in the bottom corner but referee Trevor Kettle rules it out for a push. The win is secured minutes later when Lee is bundled over in the box and Danny Hylton sends keeper Oxley the wrong way from the spot. 

 

Notes: A first third tier league win at Kenilworth Road since the 2-1 victory over Crewe in March 2008. Southend have a miserable record at Kenilworth Road, this being their 14th visit since their last win -  a 1-0 victory in November 1964.
