Wilson hails 'classic' Cox goal

Former Reading striker Cox is now up to 18 goals for the season

Danny Wilson praised a "Bergkamp-esque" goal from Simon Cox as he earned his first win as Swindon manager.

A 25-yard lob from the striker, 21, helped Town to a 3-2 win over Walsall at the County Ground on Tuesday.

Wilson told BBC Radio Swindon: "What a classic goal that was, it was absolutely brilliant.

"There's a goal it reminds me of and it's a [Dennis] Bergkamp-type of goal. There are only certain players in the country who can do things like that."

Wilson was delighted to get the victory but, having taken a 3-0 lead, thinks they made hard work of it.

"We're just disappointed that we had to be as nervous as we were at the end, but we saw it through which was good.

"The lads deserve a pat on the back. To get in the position they were in takes a lot of hard work," Wilson added.
