[Eddie1363894574]

Rovers have once again fallen behind as they look to pick up their first win of the season. It was an even first half in which chances were few and far between, but the home side took the lead with just under 10 minutes remaining in the opening period.

The match got off to an even start, although neither side was able to play with much fluency or regularly create chances. Rovers' biggest threat looked to be from set-pieces, where they consistently put the Doncaster defenders under pressure around the six-yard box. Grant Hanley had Rovers' best chance of the match when he headed over from a corner and the away side were punished for their profligacy only minutes later when a good delivery from a quick free-kick allowed Theo Robinson to head home from close range.

Rovers are perhaps unfortunate to be behind, but they will know that it is important that they start to pick points up sooner rather than later and will feel that there is still a good chance that they can get back into this match.
