The best images of Rovers' 1-0 win over Shrewsbury Town.

Academy graduates had their say at both ends of the pitch as interim manager Gary McSheffrey recorded his first win in temporary charge.

After a dominant first half in which Rovers failed to get the goal they deserved, Louis Jones made two unbelievable second-half stops to keep the score level before Branden Horton chipped in with an assist with ten minutes remaining. His 80th minute corner-kick delivery was nodded in by Joseph Olowu on his return to the starting XI after serving a three match ban.

Rovers had to see out some late pressure but showed real maturity for such a young side to ensure they reached the final whistle with a clean sheet and three points.
