Walsall 1-4 Doncaster

Doncaster came from behind to claim a thumping 4-1 win at Walsall as the hosts' unbeaten League One start to the season bit the dust.

Walsall threatened after 10 minutes as Luke Leahy's defence-splitting pass freed Josh Ginnelly but he curled inches wide from 18 yards.

Rovers went close five minutes later as ex-Saddlers skipper Andy Butler glanced a header wide from Danny Andrew's cross.

Butler gifted his old team the opener after 17 minutes as his mistimed header from a Ginnelly cross set up Morgan Ferrier to nod home from a couple of yards.

But Doncaster levelled zfter 33 minutes as Leahy handled a high ball and John Marquis tucked home his fourth league goal of the season from the spot.

Doncaster keeper Marko Marosi impressively foiled Ferrier's six-yard strike after the break before Rovers led as Leeds loanee Mallik Wilks drilled past Liam Roberts at his near post.
