Former York City winger Martyn Woolford scored both goals as Scunthorpe United defeated Newcastle United 2-1 at Glanford Park.

Woolford opened his account eight minutes into the second-half when tapping in after Gary Hooper had seized upon a mistake from Zurab Khizanishvili.

But the Magpies were back level twelve minutes later with Kevin Nolan finding the bottom corner following a fine break by Danny Guthrie.

However, ex-York forward Woolford showed enough composure inside the area to claim a winner with eleven minutes remaining after Sam Togwell had headed on.
