Rovers v Barrow - LIVE

Rovers upping the ante. Adelakun has a shot that takes a deflection which takes the sting out of it.

Game has the feel of ‘you attack, we attack’ and Rovers have certainly gone gung-ho since the changes. Barrow mount a counter and win a corner.

Lengthy stoppage here as Barrow’s goalscorer Emile Acquah takes his time exiting the field.

Sub does well and beats his man before winning a corner. Lively introduction.

Assistant’s flag goes up, not that Adelakun noticed. He finished coolly but had just strayed offside.

ON Rowe Anderson Hurst

OFF Sterry Craig Maxwell

Adelakun almost makes it 2-2. Races onto a ball forward but Farman reads his attempted lob.

Five-figure crowd confirmed

Rovers pull it back to 2-1 as Ironside coolly slots home. Game on.

Ironside brought down. Rovers pen.
