Two second-half goals gave leaders Walsall a 2-0 victory over a struggling Morecambe side who ended the game with 10 men.
The contest was evenly poised until the 50th minute when Morecambe defender Rhys Williams was sent off for pulling back Jamie Jellis as he looked to run onto a long through ball.
To make matters worse for the home side, the Saddlers took the lead from the resulting free-kick as Taylor Allen curled the ball over the wall and into the goal off the foot of the right-hand post.
Despite being a man down, Morecambe looked to hit back with Marcus Dackers missing a golden chance to equalise when he headed a pinpoint Adam Lewis cross over from close range.
He was made to pay for the miss when Jellis scored a second three minutes from the end when he fired past goalkeeper Harry Burgoyne from the edge of the box.
Morecambe had the better chances of the first half but Lee Angol twice failed to find the target from close range.
