87 Great save
The trialist keeper goes acrobatic to keep out a long range piledriver from Regan Slater with one hand
82 GOAL Blades
Luke Freeman heads in from close range for United.
Zak Brunt cut out a crossfield ball from Louis Reed to Zeki Fryers and surged forward before clipping a ball into the box which Freeman headed home.
74 Substitution
The trialist goalkeeper replaces Louis Jones.
Not 100 per cent sure whether he can be named at this point.
Charlie Seaman has replaced Kyle Knoyle also.
65 Better from Rovers
A couple of decent attacks from Rovers with good quick play as players link up.
First, one-touch passing put Ed Williams in space on the edge of the area but his ball through to Tiago Cukur was a little too heavy.
Shortly after, Matt Smith intercepted a ball 20 yards out, turned and lashed a shot which Wes Foderingham held well.
46 Substitutions for Rovers
Tiago Cukur and Aidan Barlow on on for Rovers in place of Jordy Hiwula and Dan Gardner.
Also entering the fray is another trialist, Zeki Fryers, who replaces Dan Gardner.
Fryers has gone in at left back with Tommy Rowe pushing into midfield.
Fryers played under Wellens at Swindon Town and previously was on the books of Barnsley, Crystal Palace, Tottenham and Man Utd.
