Doncaster 1-1 Notts County
Saturday 9 November 2024 18:13, UK
Doncaster substitute Joe Ironside ensured a share of the spoils for Rovers in the battle against fellow League Two high-flyers Notts County.
The two sides were separated by only goal difference heading into the game and Alassana Jatta's first-half header looked set to give County daylight between them and their hosts.
But Ironside equalised midway through the second half as a high-quality contest at the Eco-Power Stadium finished 1-1.

County made a bright start count in the 13th minutes when Jacob Bedeau collected the ball on the left before curling in a fine cross for Jatta, who planted a header beyond Ted Sharman-Lowe.
Doncaster responded well with Luke Molyneux twice seeing shots deflect behind.
