Robbie Savage on the winning trail as Forest Green boss
First, he burst forward and his cross found Christian Doidge but the former Hibernian striker sent his header narrowly over the crossbar.
Nicky Haughton then came close to breaking the deadlock but saw his 64th-minute shot come back off the post.
Buyabu again picked out Doidge who headed narrowly wide before the lively attacker found the net 15 minutes from time when his low cross was deflected into the net by a Glovers defender.
Yeovil then saw Jake Wannell dismissed four minutes from time for a second yellow card for handball and Kairo Mitchell wrapped it when reacting quickest to finish from close range in stoppage time.

Livingston 0-2 Hibernian: What Gray said
Hibernian head coach David Gray: "It was very much job done, a real professional performance. I have spoken a lot about needing to use the squad and they all delivered today. A clean sheet at a very difficult place to come and now our attention turns quickly towards Europe which everyone will be excited about."Thibault Klidje was excellent, delighted for him on a personal note. That will do his confidence the world of good. We've been patient with him, we'll continue to do that. He's a work in progress, he needs to settle. I credit the group because of how quickly he has settled in."We've got players that can come on and affect the game, it was a real team performance today."There is still loads to improve on but as far as we're concerned it was a very professional performance and we can look forward to Thursday."On Grant Hanley, Gray adds: "I think that might be only the second game of his career on astroturf, he's got his first blister of his career today. I said 'welcome to Livi away, that's what happens'. He was solid, really composed. The whole back five today, I don't want to single anybody out, because it was a real collective performance."

Kilmarnock 2-1 Dundee Utd: Home side capitalise on visitors' fatigue
The midfielder was back in the team after missing the previous weekend's draw with Hibernian after his wife went into labour. And he made the difference in the 69th minute when he volleyed home from 12 yards after Lewis Mayo had headed substitute Greg Kiltie's deep free-kick back into his path. United had fought back from Marcus Dackers' early opener as substitute Owen Stirton netted an equaliser. But they suffered a second knockout of the week after exiting the Conference League on Thursday night following a penalty shootout defeat against Rapid Vienna. United also sustained a further injury blow, having lost Zac Sapsford midway through the second leg against the Austrians. Another forward, Max Watters, went off injured in Ayrshire after appearing to jar his lower leg. Manager Jim Goodwin made two changes from the team that started the European tie. Luca Stephenson came straight in after re-signing on loan from Liverpool, while Amar Fatah replaced Sapsford. The United fans showed their support for on-loan Troyes player Fatah with a banner of his name after his missed penalty cost them a place in the play-offs. Read more: Killie made a bright start, with 6ft 7in Dackers the focal point of their play. The striker held the ball up well and nearly got on the end of a dangerous cross from David Watson. Dackers soon gave Killie the lead in the sixth minute. Ben Brannan scored a goal-of-the-season contender at Easter Road last week and the wing-back produced what could be one of the best assists of the campaign. Brannan's diagonal ball over the top sent Dackers through and the former Salford forward guided the bouncing ball home. United responded well with a number of balls into the box. Ivan Dolcek fired wide from a crowded penalty box just before Stirton, who was on for Watters, notched an excellent striker's goal following a 25th-minute break. The 18-year-old took a neat touch from Fatah's pass that took him beyond Robbie Deas and slotted home with his left foot. The game settled down into a tighter affair, but Killie appeared to have the edge. Deas and Brannan both shot narrowly over from half-chances before Lyons netted with a powerful strike. Killie held firm as they extended their unbeaten run under new manager Stuart Kettlewell to seven games and nearly added to their lead when sub Bruce Anderson was denied by Yevhenii Kucherenko after latching on to Dackers' header on.
