Jake Hyde's winner helped Southend secure a narrow home win against a stubborn 10-man Yeovil.

Yeovil were up against it after just 17 minutes when Gime Toure was shown a straight red card for an off-the-ball incident with Southend centre-back Kacper Lopata.

Yet the Glovers thought they had taken the lead on 33 minutes only for Josh Staunton's header to be ruled out.

The hosts capitalised on their numerical advantage after 37 minutes as Hyde headed in Jack Bridge's cross from close range.

Bridge and Hyde combined again just shy of the hour mark, but the latter could not steer his header on target.
