Five minutes later George Miller fired in what proved to be the winning goal when he found the back of the net for the first time in 17 matches after getting on the end of Ben Close’s free-kick.
Jackson said: “First-half we were off our usual levels. We regrouped at half-time after a few stern words.
"I think taking a point would have been more than merited.

"We pretty much peppered their goal for long parts of that half and just couldn’t get the goal.”
The Dons looked to have levelled with the final action of the match when substitute Saikou Janneh’s volley from the edge of the box looked to be heading in, only to strike his teammate Ethan Chislett on the line and fly over the bar.
“The opportunity at the end pretty much summed up our luck,” said Jackson, whose side are now without a win in eight matches.
