Gillingham, Doncaster draw after Harry Forrester scores fluke goal

A fluke goal from Harry Forrester helps Doncaster Rovers draw with Gillingham 1-1.

Harry Forrester scored a fluke goal for Doncaster Rovers as they drew with Gillingham this afternoon.

Bradley Dack had a great opportunity after flicking the ball over Donny goalkeeper Stephen Bywater following an intricate passing move, but Andy Butler was in the right place to head the ball off the line.

Forrester, who had just come on as a substitute for the injured James Coppinger, got the first goal of the afternoon after taking a free kick from the halfway line which bounced in the area and over the head of Stuart Nelson to land in the net.

John Marquis then equalised just before the break by heading in a Doug Loft free kick.

John Egan narrowly headed over from a corner after half time and Kyle Bennett hit wide of the post, but Gillingham could not find the breakthrough that they needed.

Forrester continued to provide sparks for Doncaster but nothing came to fruition.

The 1-1 draw sees Doncaster remain in sixth place, while Gillingham drop down to 15th.
