This proved to be the exciting and well contested match that we all expected.

Ryan Couling made it 2-0 after following up a well saved shot from Luke McMahon by Rovers B keeper Josh Roberts. Drew Hodges nearly pulled one back a minute later with a great free kick that hit the underside of the bar before Rovers A keeper Sam Goodchild could clear to safety.
The second half proved equally entertaining, Luke McMahon made it 3-0 after 31 minutes scoring after being put clean through by Callum Merchant. A few minutes later Rovers A conceded their first goal of the season having kept a clean sheet for over five and half hours, again it was a superb free kick from Drew Hodges that gave the A keeper no chance.
