Steve Flack opened the scoring midway through the first half when he headed Alex Jeannin's free-kick over the stranded Andy Warrington.

Dean Moxey doubled the lead in stunning style when he caught Warrington napping and lobbed the ball home from 45 yards.

Blundell, who struck the bar early on, pulled one back from Paul Green's cross in the 86th minute, while Guy Ipoua also hit the woodwork for Rovers.
