Jake Hessenthaler has scored two goals in eight appearances for Gillingham this season

Gillingham went top of League One after a narrow win over Doncaster Rovers.

Jake Hessenthaler's second-half strike settled the match after the assistant referee ruled his effort from close range had crossed the line.

Thorsten Stuckmann's diving save from Luke Norris denied the Gills a second goal with 10 minutes remaining.

Curtis Main and Oscar Gobern went close for Rovers in the first half, while Richard Chaplow and Cameron Stewart missed chances after the break.

The Gills remain unbeaten in the league and moved to the top of the table after Walsall were beaten at home by Bury.
