ISAAC Olaofe made his Football League debut as Sutton United continued their promising start in League Two with a 4-0 win against Carlisle United at Gander Green Lane on Saturday.
Olaofe – who was making a belated start to his second consecutive season on loan at Sutton after picking up an injury in pre-season – came on in the 66th minute as Matt Gray’s side won for the third time in their last four league games.
Alistair Smith scored a brace after Donovan Wilson had scored in the fourth minute.
Manasse Mampala was sent off for the visitors before David Ajiboye got the fourth as Sutton made it three straight home wins to move up to 14th in the table with 11 points from eight games.
Also in League Two, Alex Mitchell made his fifth appearance for Leyton Orient as Kenny Jackett’s side drew 0-0 at home to Mansfield.
Mitchell was booked after Tyrese Sinclair had kicked out at Theo Archibald and players from both sides piled into a confrontation.
Sinclair was sent off and Orient’s Shad Ogie and Mansfield’s Rhys Oates were also booked.
Orient are second, four points behind Forest Green Rovers.
