Boston United v Doncaster Rovers LIVE

Key Events

  • Rovers opened pre-season with a 3-1 win over Rossington Main on Saturday

Another good workout for Rovers and another win thanks to Joe Ironside’s double and Tommy Rowe’s deflected strike.

Reaction to come.

Westbrooke’s free-kick saved

Decent effort from the midfielder but Lovelance punches it clear. Have to say Rovers have been a bit flat in this half, albeit with a weaker XI.

Penalty to Boston - and it’s 3-2

Not sure who made the foul but Gyasi steps up and scores.

It was a big one and he knows it. The youngster has his head in his hands after being played through on goal but sending his strike straight at the goalkeeper. Should have done better.

Goal ruled out for Doncaster

Jack Goodman crosses for Tavonga Kuleya to convert from close range, only for the linesman to raise his flag.

Wonderful stuff from Molyneux

He puts the ball through the legs of Ryan Hand, leaving him for dust as he drives into the box, before taking a shot at goal that’s beaten away.

Another chance for Boston

The home side are much improved and Michael Gyasi fires narrowly wide after a nice run.

A free-kick delivery from the far side evades everyone and comes back off the post, where it is gratefully collected by Ben Bottomley. Let off for Doncaster.

Bobby goes into the book

The youngster is penalised for bringing down a Boston player on the edge of the box.
