Wycombe sidestepped a tricky FA Cup banana skin by defeating Wealdstone 2-0 at Grosvesnor Vale.

The League One leaders saw goals by Beryly Lubala and Richard Kone proving the difference.

Wealdstone should have taken the lead after 22 minutes, when Sam Ashford crossed low across the face of goal to find Alex Reid – yet somehow put his connection over the bar from under three yards out.

Wycombe punished the missed chance six minutes later in the most devastating way possible. After Dan Udoh was upended by Jack Cook from 25 yards out, Lubala delivered an unstoppable free kick to give the visitors the lead.

A second goal for the visitors came almost eight minutes after the restart, when Jacob Adams scooped a Ryan Tafazolli header off the line.

Wycombe almost gifted Wealdstone an equaliser a minute later, when shot-stopper Shamal George had to deny Reid after a poor David Wheeler header was too short.

Reid picked up on another mistake, this time by Tafazolli, and saw his 71st minute solo run matched by George.

The visiting side made sure of their passage to the third round when a powerful solo run by sub Kone was finished with a fierce shot home.
