Mason Terry continued his impressive start to life in the Enterprise National League by keeping another clean sheet for Braintree Town against table-toppers Forest Green Rovers.
The Iron dominated the first half and could have gone into the break with a comfortable lead had they taken their chances. After the interval, the league leaders shifted the momentum, forcing Terry into action on several occasions, but the 20-year-old goalkeeper proved equal to everything thrown his way.
His shutout means he has now gone over 400 minutes without conceding at Cressing Road. Terry will be aiming to extend that record on Tuesday evening, when Braintree host Tamworth in what will be his 100th senior appearance following previous loan spells at Concord Rangers and AFC Hornchurch.
In EFL League One, Gideon Kodua started his fourth game for Luton Town, away at Burton Albion.
Deployed at right wing-back, he helped the Hatters secure a 3-0 victory, with goals from Lasse Nordås, Millenic Alli and Zack Nelson moving them level on points with Huddersfield Town in the Play-Off places.
Staying in the third tier, Michael Forbes featured from the bench for Northampton Town, playing the final 25 minutes as the Cobblers secured back-to-back wins and clean sheets with a 1-0 success at Leyton Orient. The result lifted them four points clear of the relegation zone after a slow start to the season.
In the EFL Championship, Kaelan Casey awaits his full league debut for Swansea City, who recorded a 2-0 away win at Sheffield Wednesday to extend their unbeaten run to four matches in all competitions. Captain Ben Cabango and summer signing from Ipswich Town Cameron Burgess have formed the backbone of a defence that has conceded only twice in their opening four league fixtures, the second-best record in the division, behind leaders Middlesbrough.
Finally, in the Turkish League, Edson Álvarez played 90 minutes on his debut for Fenerbahçe, who won 3-1 against Gençlerbirlgi to move up to fifth in the table.
