Maynard opened the scoring with 10 minutes of the first half remaining when Jean Beausejour laid it on a plate for the striker to turn home from close range.

Chris McCann struck an effort just over the bar on the half-hour mark before Martyn Waghorn headed home James McClean's corner towards the end of the first half.
