MATCH RATING

Entertainment 7

NEAL: Dealt comfortably with what little a weak side was able to throw at him 6

DUFFY: Produced a pinpoint cross for Pope to create the third goal and looked sound at the back 7

McCOMBE: Solid performance from the dependable centre-half who made one terrific goal-saving clearance 7

McDONALD: He will have sterner tests than this, though he seemed to lose position a couple of times and was withdrawn 6

YATES: Another quietly impressive game from the right-back who was switched to the left once again 6

MYRIE-WILLIAMS: Ever-present danger to the Rovers defence with a number of raids down the right 7

JAMES: Busy and hard-working display on a night he will never forget 6

BURGE: Always looking to be involved, the midfield ace did well in the engine room before being replaced 7

VINCENT: Welcome return from suspension for the popular winger who was always looking to push on 7

WILLIAMSON: Super-sub grabbed chance to start with a goal and a lively display in the forward line 7

POPE: Inexplicably given plenty of room and predictably took advantage with a treble which took his season's tally to 20. 9

SUBSTITUTES

LLOYD (for Pope, 69): A hive of industry down the left after giving the goal-den one a breather 6

McALLISTER (for Burge, 74): Hard work in the middle, but little time to truly make an impact 6

DAVIS (for McDonald, 79): Fresh legs at the back for the final 10 minutes 6

Subs not used: Johnson, Dodds, Shuker, Davis, McAllister, Taylor.

BRISTOL ROVERS

Etheridge, Smith, Paterson, Woodards (Gill, 46), Parkes, Broghammer (Santos, 61), Brown, Clucas (Riordan, 56), Lund, Eaves. Subs not used: Virgo, Harrison, Walker, Lockyer.
