Donny surge delights McCann

-

LEAGUE ONE Doncaster made their contributi­on to a day of shocks with victory over Championsh­ip opposition. ‘I told the players before the game to go and show that they can compete at this level and I think they’ve done that,’ said delighted Rovers manager Grant McCann. The visitors led through John Marquis’s fifth-minute header but it was cancelled out by Andrew Hughes. Tom Anderson scrambled the ball home with 18 minutes to go and Mallik Wilks made the win sure in the dying minutes. Preston boss Alex Neil slammed his side’s performanc­e. ‘I think during my time here there have been five or six games where it has been unacceptab­le in terms of performanc­e, and that was one of them,’ he said.
