Baffins 3 Petersfield Town 2

Kelvin Robinson, Charlie Oakwell and Joe Johnson are on target as Rovers secure Portsmouth Senior Cup progression.

Danny Thompson made six changes, offering minutes to players lacking time on the pitch, for the First Round tie with Petersfield.

And his side fell behind early on as Christian Bennett found the bottom right corner with a well-placed effort. But, despite the early lead for the visitors, Rovers were back on level terms eight minutes later as Kelvin Robinson scored his second goal in as many matches.

Charlie Oakwell’s ball found the forward who emphatically found the far corner of the Rams’ net.

Shortly after, it was Oakwell’s turn to find the target - netting his third goal of the campaign - as the referee’s advantage paid off with the midfielder slotting home to send his side into the lead.

Baffins began the second interval in the best-possible way as Harvey Wellham’s impressive ball found Joe Johnson - who returned to the first-team for this fixture - and he fired home past Jordi Wilson.

Petersfield did score again, this time through Mino Djuara, but Baffins had a plethora of changes in the second half to extend their lead, but progressed 3-2.
