Bristol Rovers   0 - 1   Walsall

Bristol Rovers 0-1 Walsall

Bristol Rovers 0-1 Walsall

Goalkeeper Clayton Ince saved a penalty as Walsall overcame Bristol Rovers in the sides' second meeting in four days.

Walsall took the lead when Richard Taundry fired home after Alex Nicholls' shot had been blocked.

Ince made a save from a deflected Wayne Brown shot and Rovers keeper Mikkel Andersen stopped a Dwayne Mattis drive.

But it was to be Ince's night, the goalie diving to keep out Jeff Hughes' penalty and then beating away the follow-up effort from Paul Heffernan.


Bristol Rovers first-team coach Paul Trollope told BBC Radio Bristol:

"There was a lot of huff and puff in the second half, we pushed them downhill.

"Unfortunately, we didn't have the guile or good luck to create chances.

"We deserved a point from the game, but things are going against us."
