Bristol Rovers 0-0 Burton Albion

  • Published

Graham Coughlan made it 10 points from a possible 15 as Bristol Rovers caretaker boss with a goalless draw against Burton.

Ben Turner went closest to a winner for the Brewers with a 77th-minute header from a corner that flew inches wide.

Centre-back Turner had earlier been on hand to block a shot from Rovers substitute Liam Sercombe on the line in the 68th minute.

Burton created the best chance of a low-key first half after 41 minutes when Lucas Akins had a fierce shot parried by goalkeeper Jack Bonham following a through ball from Kieran Wallace.

Rovers found it hard to create anything and their only first-half effort of note was an early long-range shot from Michael Kelly which was comfortably saved by Brad Collins.

Coughlan can boast three wins and a draw from his five games in charge and looks favourite to succeed Darrell Clarke on a permanent basis.
