Kenya's Ayunga scores a brace to fire Bristol Rovers past Portsmouth

Kenya's Jonah Ayunga scored a brace in Bristol Rovers' 3-1 win over Portsmouth on Tuesday in a League One encounter.

Ayunga played a critical role as the Gas picked a win after going down 2-0 to Oxford United in a previous match.

The first clear chance for the hosts came when Luke Leahy, who was appointed as the stand-in captain. He looped a ball over the Portsmouth backline for Brandon Hanlan, but goalkeeper Craig MacGillivray won the one-on-one contest as he collected the ball with Rovers' chance all but lost.

Luke McCormick for Rovers was, however, denied by MacGillivray after he was put through on goal by Sam Nicholson at the quarter-hour mark.
