5' | An early chance for Rovers, Mitchell does well to deliver the ball into the box, Doidge or Babalola can't put it away though
 
8' | The first corner of the game goes to Rovers.
 
13' | Tate Campbell runs through the middle with ease, his shot goes well wide of the post, however.
 
14' | Great save by Pags to deny Ross Langworthy!
 
17' | A simple delivery by Bunks from a free kick puts it on a plate for Doidge to tap home.  (His 87th goal for FGR in all competitions.)
 
24' | A good save from Sam Gilder to deny Kenj!
 
26' | Bishops Cleeve equalise through Langworthy.
 
29' | A great pass by Bunks and a nice knockdown by Temi to play in Doidge, who just fouls his man trying to poke it past Gilder.
 
36' | Corner to Rovers following Mitchell's blocked shot.
 
38' | A neat turn by Campbell on the edge of the box, beats one player and slots it in the top corner to put Rovers back ahead.
 
45' | Two minutes of added time.
 
        Temi makes it three! And Kairo makes it four 90 seconds later!
 
Half-Time:   FGR 4 - 1 Bishops Cleeve        Attendance:  292

46' | Three changes for the second half
 
        On:   Conteh, Walsh, Bifulco
        Off:   Doidge, Campbell, Nwoko.
 
57' | Close! Youngster Walsh crashes an excellent effort off the bar!
 
      61 & 62 mins: Harries from the free kick makes it five!     And then Mitchell gets his brace with a lovely curled effort
 
64' | Final two changes.
 
       On:   Godfrey, Stiles
       Off:   Pagel, Harries
 
68' | Have to say it is fantastic to see all five academy players on the pitch.
 
74' | Good take and disruption by young Godfrey.
 
80' | Bifulco stings the palms of Gilder with a good effort!
 
82' | Bishops Cleeve awarded a penalty, which Rubio converts.
 
90' | One minute of added time.
 
Job done and, GFA Challenge Cup winners! 🏆
