LIVE: Cheltenham Town v Doncaster Rovers

Double change for Rovers at the break - Griffiths and Galbraith on for Gardner and Martin.

Rovers find themselves 2-0 down for a second successive weekend.

Cheltenham have not played particularly well yet find themselves two goals to the good.

They’ve knocked a few balls into the channels and into the box and it’s reaped reward for them. Rovers not doing the basics well enough.

May twists and turns in the box but shoots wide.

Far, far too easy.

Blair’s cross from the right nodded home by Ben Williams at the back stick.

34 NOT FOR THE PURIST

Rovers had that decent spell of possession before going behind but it’s been very scrappy in the main. Lots of stoppages.

Clayton’s just gone into the book for a tackle which the Town players did not like but he appeared to win the ball.

Bonds fires just over from distance after some nervy, hesitant defending from Rovers.

Martin bursts forward and his shot deflects wide for a corner.

An opening for Rowe in the box but it’s an excellent challenge by Boyle. Smith curls narrowly wide.

Alfie May. Who else?

He curls home a freekick from just outside the area.

Big save from Mitchell to deny Boyle and then Jackson blocks two follow-up attempts.
