Milton Keynes Dons 1-0 Doncaster Rovers
- Published
Daniel Harvie's second-half strike gave MK Dons a deserved win over Doncaster Rovers at Stadium:MK.
The Scottish full-back cut in on his right foot on 76 minutes and fired in his deflected shot to break Rovers' resistance after a number of smart saves from Louis Jones.
Jones had earlier denied Harvie by parrying his effort onto a post before rebuffing Will Grigg's rebound.
The academy graduate had also thwarted Grigg's downward header on 28 minutes and tipped Louis Thompson's effort over the bar 40 seconds after the break.
But Harvie's first goal of 2021 sealed a fourth win in a row for Russell Martin's resurgent Dons following a winless five-game run.
The defeat condemned Doncaster to their third defeat in five, dropping the managerless side out of the play-offs after a run of two victories in 12.
Their best effort came through Jason Lokilo, who was the beneficiary of brilliant build-up play before his shot was blocked by Harry Darling.
