Goals from Nathan Dimou and Junior Smith were not enough to spark a fightback as Rovers’ U18 side were made to pay for a slow start against Scunthorpe United.
Joey Dawson put the Iron ahead and Harry Jessop doubled their advantage. Dimou forced the ball in from a free-kick to give Paul Stancliffe’s side hope, but Jessop struck again to end realistic hopes of a fightback meaning Smith’s late header was a mere consolation.
