Wycombe secured a 4-1 victory at bottom-side Shrewsbury to cement their spot as League One leaders.

The Chairboys took the lead in the 15th minute when Cameron Humphreys won the ball off Taylor Perry and floated a cross to the back post for Beryly Lubala to nod in.

Just before the break, Wycombe doubled their advantage when Caleb Taylor managed to get on the end of a corner and tap into the net from close range.

John Marquis then won the ball high up on the hour mark and went one-on-one with goalkeeper Franco Ravizzoli, who sent it behind for a corner.

The visitors got a third with just over 20 minutes to go when Luke Leahy whipped in a cross to Fred Onyedinma, who headed in.

Shrewsbury pulled one back minutes later when Jordan Shipley converted a free-kick from 30 yards.

But Wycombe restored their three-goal cushion in the 74th minute through former Shrewsbury striker Dan Udoh, who smashed it past Toby Savin.
