⏱️ It ends in defeat for us.

Five added.

[1-2]

Randell into the book for his complaints to the assistant referee when claiming a Wanderers ball on a throw.

[1-2]

Connor Taylor timewasting gets booked. We're on the front foot now.

[1-2]

ONE BACK!! TOALY!!

A deflected free-kick falls into Eoin Toal's path and he diverts it into the net!

[1-2] 

Mendes Gomes fouled. It's just outside the area to the right of the box, and Aaron Morley stood over it.

[0-2]

A rash challenge from Kyle to stop a potential Bristol Rovers attack down-field, and he is booked.

[0-2]

Luca Hoole comes on to replace John Marquis.

[0-2]

Ryan Woods comes on to replace Grant Ward.

[0-2]

🔄 Triple change for us...

[0-2] 

Better! A Morley corner goes over everyone that Forrester is able to turn back inside, but we can't scramble it home.

From another corner shortly after, a smart Matt Cox save denies Böðvarsson's left-footed effort on the turn from finding the top corner.

[0-2]

A clearance falls nicely for George Thomason to control and hit from 25 yards out, but it bounces into the path of Cox and he collects.

[0-2]

A lovely ball from George Thomason goes searching for Kyle Dempsey, but the weight of it is just slightly off and Cox in the Rovers goal rushes out to collect. Close.

[0-2]

🔄 Another change on the hour...

[0-2] 

For the first time in this half, the visitors threaten as a nice one-two allows Ward to get behind our defence. He crosses looking for Marquis, but he can't get a full touch on it and it's cleared.

[0-2]

They go short and whip the ball in from a different angle, and Baxter comes out to collect.

[0-2]

From the corner, a ball is knocked back into the area and Connor Taylor nods towards goal and Baxter has to push over his bar.

[0-2]

Despite seeing all the ball at the start of this half, it's the visitors who carve out the first chance.

Marquis wins it high from Toal, sets it for Evans who lets fly from 25 yards and forces Baxter to push behind for a corner. 

[0-2]

Again, more nice play at the start of the second half as we go searching for a goal. We try some intricate play around the edge of the area with Maghoma, Thomason and Bodvarsson all involved, but it's cleared.

[0-2]

It's a fast start and a good response at the start of the second half. Dacres-Cogley's cross is deflected just away from Bodvarsson, before Maghoma's goal-bound effort comes off JDB and away from danger.

The crowd pick up and it's a decent opening from us.

[0-2]

Underway...

[0-2]

A foul looked likely on Maghoma, but nothing given. Marquis then gets Rovers going the other way and Aaron Collins forces the save out of Baxter.

Nathan is then booked for protesting.

[0-2]

Geth stands firm and blocks the effort from Vale in the wall.

[0-2]

Grant Ward is brought down on the edge of the area. Will Forrester looked to have won the ball, but foul given and Will is booked. Shooting chance, here.

[0-2]

Four added.

[0-2]

Antony Evans converts after a pull back from the left.

[0-2]

A first change...

[0-1]

Aaron Collins gets in-behind the defence of George Thomason and looks to whip one across goal, but it evades everyone and goes out for a throw. Baxter did get a touch to it, but to safety.

[0-1]

We're down to ten as Ricardo Almeida Santos is sent off after a loose touch allowed Aaron Collins in and what looked an open goal with Baxter offering a pass in-field.

[0-1] 

Corner comes to nothing for a foul, and Luke Thomas is booked for kicking the ball away after the whistle had gone.

[0-1]

The visitors are still working themselves into decent attacking positions, and a driving Luke Thomas run down Rovers' right earns them a corner off Toal.

[0-1]

A corner is only headed clear to the edge of the area by Toal, allowing Grant Ward to take a nice touch out his feet and hit from 18-yards, but a big block denies the ball travelling towards Baxter's goal.

[0-1]

A lovely diagonal ball from Eoin Toal finds Josh Dacres-Cogley perfectly, with his first touch taking him past a Rovers man and into the area but the flag goes up for offside. Close one, with the home crowd not happy and a chance looking likely.

[0-1]

Better! Maghoma and Charles link nicely to allow Dion to get in down the right. He checks back to beat a man before trying to pull the ball back, but the visitors scramble to clear.

[0-1]

The away side have made their intentions clear following the goal, in slowing the play down at every opportunity. They pushed the line too much however, with Finley booked for holding onto the ball as we try to restart the game from a free-kick.

[0-1]

It's a poor ball in from Jack Iredale in the end, and the visitors are able to clear at the near post.

[0-1]

Jack Iredale nips in before the Rovers defender to push the ball away and draw the foul from Antony Evans. Crossing chance just left of the penalty area.

[0-1]

A nice ball from Grant Ward from the right, and John Marquis turns home unmarked six-yards out.

[0-1] 

Beautiful play down the right between JDC, Thomason and Jones allows Geth to get in and drill a low ball across, but Rovers clear at the near post.

Finding our groove early, here.

[0-0]

Rovers come forward from that and make a chance of their own as an Almeida Santos header only goes as far as Vale at the far post, and he volleys straight at Baxter.

[0-0]

We're immediately on the front foot, and Morley dictating from the heart of midfield early. Lovely ball over the top finds Iredale down the left, and he looks to whip a ball across goal, but it's cleared behind.

From the corner, the visitors are able to head away.

[0-0]
