Shrewsbury Town bowed out of the EFL Trophy after they were outclassed by fellow League One opponents Birmingham City.
Three goals before the break and one in the second half saw the League One leaders ease to a 4-0 victory.Leo Castledine of Shrewsbury Town and Tomoki Iwata of Birmingham City
It could have been 2-0 when former West Brom youngster Taylor Gardner-Hickman met a cross from Alex Cochrane on the volley, but that effort went wide.John Marquis was denied by Ryan Allsop, and after Winchester kept the attack alive, Leo Castledine headed goalwards, but Dion Sanderson did enough to stop it going in.
Salop thought they had one back when Castledine finished a fine passing move on the stroke of half-time only to be flagged offside. Sagoe Jr could have got on the scoresheet. He was slipped in by Castledine but it was denied by the legs of Allsop.
