Rovers undone by league leaders Leiston

Rovers were comfortably beaten 4-0 by league leaders Leiston.
In a first half which saw the visitors grab 3 goals, Rovers also struggled against a strong wind. Rhys Henry fired home a right foot rocket in the 17th minute, with Michael Brothers adding a second in the 41st minute. Two minutes later Henry grabbed his second of the game to ease the leaders into the break.
Leon Ottley-Gooch side footed a volley past Louis Godwin-Green barely two minutes after half time to give Leiston an unasailable lead. Rovers did better in the second half, creating chances in a 15 minute spell but was found wanting in front of goal. Nick Skelton was Rovers bright spark on a dark afternoon at Burroughs Park which saw Ashley Hawkins sent off after receiving two yellow cards for dissent in the space of three minutes.
