After Swindon win the first leg by three goals to nil, City threaten to come back with two goals in the first quarter of an hour. Dave Bamber soon restores a two goal advantage, but just a minute later, City score again - and they look like they might equalise before a Steve Berry penalty wraps the tie up for the Town.
