Jake Young netted a first-half double as Swindon beat Sutton 5-3 in a thriller at the County Ground.
League Two Player of the Month Young scored after five minutes when he drove into space and tucked his shot home at the near post.
Swindon got their second 15 minutes later when Dan Kemp picked up a loose ball in the area and set up Jake Cain to curl into the corner of the net, before Young netted his second after capitalising on some comical defending.
Sutton managed to pull it back to 3-2 before the break though as Craig Clay dispatched from the top of the box before Ben Goodliffe turned home a long throw.
Kemp looked to have won it for Swindon early in the second half as he scooped a shot over Jack Rose and in off the bar.
Harry Smith made it a nervy finish when he was given space at the far post to turn the ball home, but substitute Rushian Hepburn-Murphy scored a marvellous individual goal to seal the points three minutes from time.
