Doncaster 1-1 Cambridge: Ethan Galbraith earns point for Rovers in draw
Tuesday 26 October 2021 23:37, UK
Ethan Galbraith’s stunning strike earned Doncaster a 1-1 draw in the battle with fellow strugglers Cambridge.
An own goal from Dan Gardner had put Cambridge ahead early on with the visitors then doing an excellent job to stifle Doncaster.
Gardner sliced Shilow Tracey's drilled cross into his own net on seven minutes.
Jordy Hiwula should have levelled moments later when he was played clean through but saw his shot blocked by goalkeeper Tomas Holy, who signed on an emergency loan from Ipswich earlier in the day.
Sam Smith put a free header over the bar as Cambridge threatened to double their lead.
