BALI MUMBA marked his Peterborou­gh debut with a wonder winner.

The on-loan

Norwich defender’s super solo effort added to Sammie Szmodics’s opener after former Posh favourite Paul Coutts had fired League Two Rovers level from the spot.

Peterborou­gh boss Darren Ferguson said: “Bali gave us energy, got the crowd up and scored a great goal with a great finish. He won us the game.”

Covid forced Rovers boss Joey Barton to miss their first game since December 11 and Brett Pitman had a late goal chalked off.

Coach Andy Mangan said: “We had a perfectly good goal disallowed.”
