Fleetwood Town midfielder Gareth Evans has admitted his delight after opening his account for the club at the weekend.

The 24-year-old scored in the 2-1 win over Dagenham & Redbridge, a result that moved them to within three points of the playoff positions.

He told the club's official website: "It is a bit overdue if I am honest. I have been a bit unlucky not to score up to now but I am finally glad to get my name on the scoresheet and hopefully get a few more between now and the end of the season."

Evans has previously played for Rotherham United.
