Doncaster Rovers could set up a tie with manager Grant McCann’s old club if they beat Accrington Stanley in their FA Cup first round replay.

Doncaster looked to have booked their spot in the second round at the Eco-Power Stadium earlier this month when Harrison Biggins’ goal put them 2-1 ahead with under ten minutes to play.

But Accrington scored a late equaliser to force a replay.

The winner of tonight’s tie will play either McCann’s former employers Peterborough United or Salford City, who also require a replay.

Quite fancy extra time now, this is just getting good!

Josh Woods sees yellow for a blatant foul on Luke Molyneux. Home crowd unhappy, unsurprisingly.

Now we have a cup tie! Luke Molyneux hits the post from about 20 yards after Mo Faal tees him up.

Chance for Accrington

Nervy moment for Doncaster who have edged it since the goal. A pass sends Josh Woods through on goal but his effort is weak and saved easily by Louis Jones.
