JJ on song at Cambridge

Jack Jeffery was the star of the show for Cambridge United as they got their bid for promotion to the Football League back on track on Saturday.

The 19-year-old Academy product, who has been on loan with Jimmy Quinn's side since mid-February, scored the opening goal on the half-hour mark with a lovely turn and shot before making the second for Mark Beesley just before half-time. It was his fourth start for the Abbey Stadium outfit. Salisbury, who played with ten men for 75 minutes of the contest after Mike Fowler's sending off, were no match for the visitors, who now need just one more win from the last two games to confirm a spot in the four-team Conference play-offs.

"I told Jack before the game I had a feeling he was going to score today," said Quinn, the former West Ham United striker. "I am delighted for him. He's worked very hard since he's been here and that will do his confidence the world of good." Two other United loanees were in Championship action on Saturday. Goalkeeper Richard Wright was unable to help Southampton avoid a 1-0 home defeat by Burnley and they sit just one point outside the drop zone, while Zavon Hines got the last three minutes as Coventry City moved three points clear with a 5-1 triumph at Colchester United.
