Goals from Fejiri Okenabirhie and Niall Ennis put Doncaster in control before Joe Dodoo pounced to set up a nervy finish.

After a slow start, Doncaster enjoyed the better of the play, with the lively Okenabirhie going close with a header.

Doncaster finally got their reward in the 40th minute. Reece James - who was carried off on a stretcher on the stroke of half-time - touched the ball into the box, where Okenabirhie charged in and finished well beyond Remi Matthews.

The hosts doubled their lead in the 48th minute with a wonderful team goal, starting from goalkeeper Seny Dieng. James Coppinger clipped a fine ball to the back post, where Ennis planted a header home.
