Elliot Anderson’s fine finish ensured Bristol Rovers secured what could be an important point come the end of the season against fellow promotion-chasers Tranmere Rovers at Prenton Park on Saturday.
Joey Barton’s side dominated the majority of the contest in Birkenhead enjoying 68 per cent possession but their profligacy in front of goal in a dominant first half looked to have cost them dearly when Kane Hemmings lashed home in the 56th minute after latching onto Tranmere goalkeeper Joe Murphy’s long punt forward.
However, the Gas fought back into the game and seven minutes later equalised when Luca Hoole headed into the path of Elliot Anderson who sent a guided effort into the bottom corner from close range.
