Sutton United v Doncaster Rovers LIVE

Sutton lead 1-0 as Eastmond fires home from close range after Rovers failed to clear their lines down their left. Eastmond lashes past TLT. Big, big 20 or so coming up.

Sutton go close as Patrick lashes a shot just wide of goal after Rovers fail to clear their lines.

A yellow card for Cliff Byrne, much to the delight of the Sutton home fans, after the referee feels he's heard too much.

Another penalty claim

Maxwell feeds Senior and he looks to have gone down under a challenge in the box but the referee is having none of it.

Ironside tries his luck but he looked well offside before he struck the shot and the assistant duly raises their flag.

Broadbent replaces Adelakun (59)

Sutton win a FK just inside the Doncaster half.

Rovers are making a change. With Maxwell coming on for McGrath.

Goalless at the break.

Route one from TLT to Ironside. His knock-down finds Waters but his half-volley sails way over. That should be that for the first half.

Rovers pump the ball up to Wood who knocks into the path of Waters and his effort is blocked behind for a corner.

Goes down after a swipe from Sutton's Kizzi. The home defender enters the book and Senior is okay to continue.

Wood shown a yellow card for a foul after the ref had played advantage. Second Rovers player in the book, after Waters.

TLT with another important save to keep out Sanderson. He held off McGrath and got his shot away but the new Rovers man was equal to it. Vital moment, that.

Angol tries his luck from outside the box but TLT is right behind it.

Sutton enjoying plenty of the ball especially down Rovers' right. Key that the visitors keep them at bay during this period.

Good, persistent battling from Waters sees him prod it out wide to Sterry. He tries his luck from distance with an outside-of-the-foot volley but it drops the wrong side of the Sutton post.
