Related Topics: Brandon Powell, Aodhan Doherty

Rovers opened the scoring after quarter of an hour when Aodhan Doherty powered home a strike from inside the box, with Albert Mills dismissed for a high challenge after 40 minutes.

Down to 10 men, the visitors took their tally to three through Joseph Boggan and Brandon Powell before referee Niall Smith sounded the half-time whistle.

The young Reds fought hard throughout the second half, but our defeat was confirmed when Boggan sealed his brace late on; the visitors' fourth and final goal of the game.

Both sides observed a minute's silence before kick-off.
