Gavin Holligan scored twice as Wycombe beat Peterborough at Adams Park.

The win lifts Wanderers to fifth in the Division Two table.

During a difficult first half, Wycombe finally made the breakthrough in the 34th minute.

Having seen a great effort saved by impressive Posh goalkeeper Mark Tyler, Holligan swooped to bury a glorious diving header.

The game was delayed for 50 minutes through floodlight failure and immediately after the restart Peterborough came close to an equaliser.

A stunning save from Martin Taylor denied Neale Fenn what had looked to be a certain goal.

The visitors' defence finally caved in after 64 minutes when central defender Paul McCarthy rose unchallenged to head home Darren Currie's cross.

A third arrived 11 minutes later, Holligan running on to Currie's inch-perfect through ball to drill his shot under Tyler.
