LIVE: AFC Wimbledon v Doncaster Rovers
55 BIG CHANCE
Biggins stands up a cross to the back post and Rowe gets up above his man but heads tamely wide - he should’ve done better.
47 OVER THE BAR
The Dons force an early corner and, after one shot is blocked, Chislett fires another effort just over the bar.
ENCOURAGING SIGNS
That’s the best Rovers have been with the ball so far this season but that final bit of quality has evaded them.
Clayton, Biggins and Tomlin in particular have looked good on the ball.
The build-up has been encouraging but Miller, Rowe and Hurst need to get more involved in the game.
At the other end Mitchell has been alert and made a couple of fairly routine saves. Rovers on top but it’s all square still.
Bit of a lull in the game and it’s got slightly scrappy. Perhaps the heat is starting to take its toll.
Meanwhile, Clayton is down in a heep after going in for a tackle.
Rovers’ skipper is okay to continue.
33 CLOSE
Biggins goes close from distance.
Rovers have enjoyed the lion’s share of possession and have a degree of control.
The Dons have occassionally threatened on the counter.
29 FREEKICK
Good play by Rovers and a freekick in a useful position after a handball by Nightingale.
Tomlin to take.
25 WATER BREAK
A much-needed drinks break is taken by the players.
Rovers have shown flashes of some neat interplay but they are yet to fashion a chance from open play.
